i've been having a weird problem since thursday. when i put the car in first gear the car wants to shut off and die, also in reverse. no clutch pressure in either first or reverse and sticks to the ground.

i don't have problems shifting into gears but again the clutch sticks to the ground after completing the shift. rpm doesn't go nuts when trying to accelerate and no weird noises.

no air in the lines. some leakage by the hose leaving resivore.

replaced the cmc, slave and lines last year around this time.

any idea what gives?

 

the leakage could definitely be your problem. If it's leaking it's got air going into the system and pressure leaving the system. What did you replace your CMC with? Also you changed the lines with what?

 

Both cylinders are OEM Honda Civic. The lines are the ones you made . Even when I press the clutch no bubbles pop up in the tank?

 

You wont necessarily see bubbles in the reservoir as they will be trapped in the line. You need to fix the leak and re-bleed the lines.

 

Nice, kinda glad it might be the cylinders and not actual clutch.

 

bump for anymore suggestions before i buy new clutch cylinder parts?

 

fix the leak, and try to bleed the lines before you start buying parts, a leak "could" have actually sucked in air into system. happened to me when i has leak at he slave cylinder

 

This is true, if its a slave line leaking just try and correct it, if the cylinder itself is leaking then a rebuild kit or new slave is in order.
