Hello.

I was more than two hours lalst night just researching the forum and i didnt find any which was exactly like my problem

And now the story.

yesterday I was driving my car and everything was all right, until I slow down and pressed the clutch pedal the car died! I stopped the car and fire it up and now it wont get in any gears! The clutch pedal feels very light and not as it was use to be. If I press the clutch pedal all the way, I can hear some weird sound from the clutch area and the rpm drops to 3-500. I can see the slave master move alot but I dont know if it goes as long as it should go. Please give some suggestions of what do to. I was thinking about the throw out bearing?

My car is completely stock and have about 105.000 miles. Please help me!! :cry:

greetings from Iceland!
 
Put the car in 1st gear and push the clutch in and then start it. If it moves then it is most likely something hydrolic, like a slave or master cylinder, check the clutch fluid and make sure it didn't dip to low and allow air in the lines.

What I would check in this order are:
1. Bleed Clutch Line
2. Check Clutch lever underdash to make sure it is properly connected ro the Mastercylinder
3.Check Slave cylinder
4. Check Master
5. Then Remove Tranny
6. Check Fulcrum ball and clutch lever
7. Check Clutch, Throw out bearing
 
umm see if you have any problem with the clutch fork reisting when u have a buddy push the clutch down. I had that problem and it was my trowout bearing.
 
I found the problem, and I am in shame.. :coy: One of the bolts which holds the slave was broken.. I replaced it, and now everything is OK.. :thumb:

Anyways guys. Thank you very much..I know where to go if (when) I got another problem.

Thank you!
