How many miles are on the car? Just curious. If it has alot of miles try bleeding it. Never know it might have some trash somewhere in the line.

Might have to re-greese the shaft ... my clutch felt bad too, when i pulled it out the shaft had built up greese and would only engage 1/2. This tends to happen when heat from the track or driving gets to it.

Check inside the car near the clutch pedal to see if you have any kind of fluids leaking in. One of the most common problems with the CMC is that it the seals will leak. When it does, the fluid will leak into the car at the front side of the master that is in the passenger compartment. I would look at that first to see, if that is not the problem I would try rebleeding the system because that is fairly easy, past that look at the clutch slave cylinder.

hey i also see the leak in my car from the clutch mc. is that covered by the warrenty recall?
if not what is required to repair it?
replace the whole thing or just find seals from the dealer?
if i need to replace it, should i get an aftermarket performance one (if there is one?) or should i get oem acura?
