my poor tranny and clutch!!!

[prophecy7115]

i realized that my clutch pedal feels softer and like if w/e held the pedal to the actual clutch got loose.. for example i would have the clutch down in first gear and i will semi-grip with the pedal all the way down!. the car would creep too 5 mhp in first gear with clutch all the way down, i am like and before the incedent i would have to let the clutch about 2-3 inches before i would feel a pull now i barely let it go and i am already gripping in gear.. but the clutch holds strong once engaged no slipping on WOT.. and after 1st gear it wont go into any other like the clutch doesnt open all the way for the clutch to let the gear in ...

And not to mention my second gear that poor thing is gone!!it does not go in at all!! u hear nothing but a horrible grind!.. my synchro doesnt exist in my tranny any more..ok anybody with insight on what happnd here with my clutch.. oh plus there is a horrible vibrating when releasing of the clutch (mind you the clutch has probly 1,200 miles on it). i would appreciate any opinions thank you very much!

try this...bleed the clutch system first and see if that works.next adjust the clutch rod under the dash and see if that works,if that doesnt work then you only have two parts left to replace(clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder)sometimes they will leak if their going bad.you will have to use the"TRIAL and ERROR" method.as for the vibration,it might go away if everything else is working right.you might have a combonation of problems.

$500 bucks give or take, If you take the tranny out otherwise it will be close to $1000 bucks and that is just the basic rebuild,nothing fancy.
