I have a 2000 Civic Si recently my clutch pedal lost pressure and I couldnt get my car in gear. So i checked my fluid and it was low in the clutch master so i added some and after that i had no problem putting it in gear. My only problem now is when i jump in my car after its seat over night i get in the car and the clutch goes down with no pressure i have to pump it a few times till it gets back to normal i talked to a friend and he said i should try and bleed my clutch does anyone know if that would help or know what the problem could be? thanks in advance for any help

Possibly one of your lines is damaged
Or most likely your Clutch cylinder went bad
If your pumping it, those two are likly it.
Fixing it shouldnt hurt your wallet too much
pm me if you got any q

so should i even bother trying to bleed them?

 

look where the clutch cylinder comes into the firewall and look for grease, or oil leaking from the seal of the clutch cylinder. an check lines/ slave cylinder for leaks.

just checked all of that no leaks anywhere i guess im going to try and bleed it and see if that helps

 

take the rubber boot off the end of the slave cylinder, the one that keeps dirt out of the bell housing. if the salve cylinder is leaking thats probably where you'll see it.
