Alright I own a 97 ex coupe, it has 140k on it and I'm not positive but pretty sure the clutch is going out. It seems when shes warmed up it shifts fairly fine, but when I try to move her when shes dead cold its impossible, I noticed a few mornings ago when I got in it the morning the clutch practically sank to the floor with just my foot weight on it. Today still the same sinks to the floor no resistance what so ever. Someone please share some prognosis's

 

Bump, Help Please

 

well first off...change your thread title...no one is going to even click a link that just says help let alone "help" you....

'97 EX Clutch Problem - Loosing Pressure

might be a good title....

Is your tranny filled to the correct level with the correct fluid???....does it gain pressure once you pedal it a couple of times? Did any linkage come apart? How long has this been happening???

 

check fluid, try bleeding the slave cylinder till theirs no more air bubbles .. if it starts slipping you will know try with the slave cylinder 1st then if that dont work check the clutch fork, i broke mine thought it wux the clutch like 30 bux to fix

 

Loss of pedal pressure is probably a leak in the hydraulic system. Check to see if you have lost any fluid at the master cylinder, and check for leaks from the master to the slave.

 

i have had this happen before!!!! it was my fork and slave cylinder!!! when i pushed the clutch to the floor the pedal wouldnt come bak up i looked under the hood and i had no clutch fluid!!! so i looked down at the tranny and it was leaking at the boot where slave cylinder is.. i later tore it apart and figured out the fork was almost snapped in half and the slave cylinder was done for

 

as already mentioned, Master/slave clutch cylinders do go frequently.

The fact that it shifts 'fine' when warm however can signify larger problems, but again, start by checking the hydrolic system.
