My 95 Civic VX has treated me good up until yesterday. First thing I noticed was that my clutch pedal was alot softer than normal when I pressed down on it. When I fired it up I had difficulty in engaging in any gears. But after leaving it back in neutral and letting the car warm up the problem went away.

Now today when I left to work it did the same thing but only it took a lot longer to get in gear. Then when I left my workplace to go home it did the same thing again, taking just as long as the last time to get in gear. The VX is my daily driver and this is the first time I have come across this problem.

I've searched and came upon only 1 post similar to my problem. And a good number of replies pointed towards the clutch going bad / replacing the clutch. Is this the same case for me as well? And if so, is South Bend Clutch a reputable clutch?

Thanks in advance.

 

try this first push in the clutch try to put the car in gear. if it won't go try pumping it up a few times if it slides into gear then the problem is either the master or slave cylinder. pull back the carpet under the clutch pedal and look for signs of fluid do the same at the slave cylinder on the bell housing

 

Defenitly the clutch bro, mine just went out on me so im just thinking of ditching the vx tranny and getting an ex/si tranny with a new clutch which will make the car a hell of alot faster. When you change out the clutch make sure to change out all your seals, i learned that the hard way.
