Ok, im not a car techy, or mechanic, but im also not stupid.


I just replaced my clutch 2.5-3 years ago on my 92' Honda Accord EX.
last night the car drove fine and i felt no signs of deminishing in the clutch.

This morning i go out to my car to start it up and get going for the day. I pushed in the clutch to start her up and the clutch went almost all the way to the floor, with little resistence. And the car refused to go into gear? Do i need to re-replace the whole clutch over or what am i looking at repairing.

also stupid question but my CV joints need replacing and have for a while. i just dealt with the noise because i was told by several of my mechanic friends that although annoying it should cause you any major mechanical problems. Me, being the idiot i am listened to them, and allowed the problem to go unfixed, could this have led to the faster aging of my clutch?


any help is greatly appreciated

i have two ideas. Could it be i need a tranny fluid flushing and replacement?

or the hydraulic pump for the clutch?


i dunno my clutch is probably shot i thought it couldnt hurt to explore other options

 

sounds to me like your master cylinder is bad if there was no resistance. try bleeding your clutch system and if it still does it, your master cylinder is bad.

 

yeah my buddy just came over, he check it out and said that my slave cylinder was leaking, so tommorow i bleed the clutch line and pray.
