I was driving home today from work and I noticed the clutch pedal was a little stifer than usual. As I drove home I noticed that when I would step on the gas the car would move a little but the rpms would shoot up rapidly. What could be wrong? Already checked clutch fluid. Could it be a master cylinder? Clutch is only 4-5 months old. The clutch is not a very good clutch (Exedy) it was put in to get me by till I get a swap.

Please help.

Thanks

Scott

If youre stepping on the gas and the car is barely moving but the revs are climbing its definately a clutch engagement issue. The hydrolic system will only serve to press the clutch away from the flywheel so I dont see how that would be an issue. No easy way around it youre going to have to drop the tranny and check out your install.

I had that same problem about 2 months ago. It was a hydraulic leak and it slowly fucked my clutch until one day it just didnt engage at all. So go get it fixed now!

Put in a new honda clutch disk and pressure plate and it started doing the same thing again. What the fuck could be wrong with this piece of shit engine I have?

thanks
