Re: Hyper-extended clutch
It's probably a broken pressure plate. Or some worn out springs in it. Yeah a clutch job sounds like it's in order. You're lucky to have gone as long as you have without changing it! :)
Re: Hyper-extended clutch
the car's really done that much mileage on the original clutch? :O
Re: Hyper-extended clutch
Yes . . . A18A . . . original clutch, tranny and engine with 541,000 miles. Tomorrow I'm going to try and "rig" the switch on the clutch pedal which requires me to push the clutch to the floor on start-up, the only time the problem presents itself. Then it will start (I guess) Less than full depression of the pedal won't cause it to stick, but also won't allow for start-up either. Maybe depressing the pedal only part way with the switch disabled will work, too cold and messy outside today to fool with it. I'll let you guys know. Rocketman
