In first it randomly engages the clutch at different points of pedal travel and almost stalls the car.M. Cholewa

Does not sound like a transmission problem. Clutch master cylinder maybe? Slave cylinder? Have you checked the fluid?Comment

Yeah..Element Garage!..What did you do with the print out of the slave cylinder? Did you try whatever trick you read about?
Remember folks dont believe everything you read on the web or forums for that matter.Comment

I'll double check the fluid and bleed the system just in case theres some air in there.M. Cholewa

No leaks anywhere, but the fluid looks disgusting (it's like liquid baby shit colored) and I haven't seen too much brake fluid in my life, but i've never seen it clouded like that.
So I guess, in addition to taking that dumb valve/spring out of the slave cyl, I'll flush out the fluid and replace it with some new brake fluid.
If it continues then I'll take it to someone to get a better diagnostic.M. Cholewa

So I tried the hyundai forum fix, and it seems like the previous owner already did that. So I flushed out the fluid and put new clean dot3 in there, still does it. It holds power up to redline, and at high rpm shifts, so I'm out of ideas.
Ricky, when's the next saturday that you work?M. Cholewa

This is good to know.Originally posted by WickedLoose View Post
Cholewa it really sounds like you clutch hydraulics are leaking. I've had slave cylinders leak into their boots and clutch master cylinders leak into the interior of the car. In both cases there are no external signs of leakage.Charles

Well, I took the slave off the car to remove a spring/valve in it, and found it was previously removed. But it was clean as a whistle. I guess I could have a look at the master this weekend.Originally posted by slowautoxr View PostM. Cholewa
