Grinds when trying to shift....still
Grinds when trying to shift....still
Been a long 2 months with issues that started with the brakes, replaced the master cyclinder when my brakes suddenly quit. Immediately after that the clutch felt weird. Thought it might have been slave cylinder for the clutch. No one carried it, ordered online a replaced that and bled the lines...clutch lost pressure after a couple days. Gravity bled the lines again, checked everything..seemed ok.But this started happing more and quicker. Took it to a transmission shop to look at, guy said it was master cylinder but i had to order the part myself. 1 week later, $200 part, $300 labor, and had to special order another part from dealer (something like a bleed valve?) I bring it home and two days later same thing. wont shift, just grinds. im broke and at a loss. Any ideas?
I remember another post about someone replacing a clutch slave when doing their clutch. They also had an issue. It is obviously a tricky system to bleed. You may need to try a reverse pressure bleeder, IE) Bleed the clutch system by applying pressurized brake fluid from the slave and push it up through the master. That will make a mess unless you have someone sucking out the master reservoir when it fills up. Since the brake fluid reservoir shares the clutch master as well, the air was probably introduced when you replaced the brake master cylinder. Reverse pressure bleed at least half a quart if not a full quart. Good luck
