Rollercoaster Posted October 21, 2024 Posted October 21, 2024 Today the clutch pedal has chosen to not return all the way back after use. It stays a little bit down, seemingly without affecting the actual clutch plate. It does return fully after a very little while, can feel it under foot if resting foot on it. Sometimes coincides with pressing brake pedal, wonder if its mechanical linkage problem. Or is this a symptom of worse to come, advice welcome..
Mr B Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 Perhaps look at the clutch hill hold to see it interfering with clutch movement. Hopefully adjustment/lubrication can resolve issue. be wise do visual checks rather than ignore it .
subaruB4 Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 I had the same problem in my subaru legacy. It ended up being a very little split in the clutch line between the master and slave cylinder. Sort of down behind the intercooler, bit of a prick of a thing to replace but it was like a rubber S bend pipe that was about 10cm long. It happened twice. If not that might of just just been a air bubble maybe??
Rollercoaster Posted October 22, 2024 Author Posted October 22, 2024 Ha, Funny day. Took the car out and was looking constantly at the mechanism, and puzzling, stopped at nearest Garage to use their forecourt, (I live on a muddy track, and it was nearly my first opportunity at a sensible place to stop) after a while I despairingly asked the mechanic if anyone could take a brief look, surprisingly he did look. Could not see anything obviously wrong, and as it doesnt operate faultily until its driven, I said take it for a drive! Anyhow he returned just as puzzled as me. Said it was definitely a problem. Looked again and under the bonnet. Checked fluid level. Asked me to bring it back if I wanted, I took his number thoughtfully in case the Breakdown wanted somewhere to bring it to.. Set off driving, its been perfect since!
