I came up to a stop light yesterday and when pushing clutch in to go, Clutch pedal was suddenly dead on the floor without any warning. So I pulled it up by hand and managed to get 2 more shifts in and then it just stayed all the way to the floor. After pulling into a parking lot to take a look and seeing pedal was completely dead with no obvious signs of excessively low fluid in master cylinder, I managed to start car in 1st gear with clutch fully engaged and lurched off and kind of power shifted gears to make it home about 2 miles and had no clutch slippage issues or anything.
So today I get under car and find a good size puddle under the clutch release cylinder and when I moved the boot aside oil poured out a bit and I could move the cylinder rod easy enough by hand to completely remove it from shift fork and pull it all the way out of cylinder. So apparently clutch release cylinder is bad and need to know what part to get, how much approx, how hard to change in driveway etc.
Btw has this happened to anybody else? Thx
