Well, since they replaced my break/clutch fluid cap, my clutch peda has not stuck at all.

However, I am getting jerky motions in lower gears 1st & 2nd, sometimes in 3rd, even after warmed up. Also my clutch doesn't engage now until the pedal is almost all the way to the top of the it's travel. This concerns me, as that when i first got the car, my clutch would start to engage as soon as I started to lift up the pedal. It just doesn't feel right at all. I am calling the dealer Monday. I want to the tech guy to drive mine and then drive one that is on the lot. Let them figure out the issue.

Took it to the dealer they put on a new flywheel pressure plate and all the little bolts and glue. Seemed to be fine and at 4900 miles it stuck again. Took it in today had the heater core noise fixed they looked at the slaive cylinder and it was not leaking. No bullitens on the clutch so basically nothing they are going to do right now. Well my master/clutch cylinder cap is leaking and there is a bulliten for that so that got ordered. When I wash the car I get way more brake dust coming from the back brakes than I do the front. Which they had no answer for. I tried telling him the cap caused the clutch to stick cause if its leaking out its sucking air and dirt in. Has anyone had there cap leaking? I think we have a problem with the same resevoir and the lines getting to hot next to the exhaust. I know its not driver error. Tried getting it to stick before I took it in today on the road to the dealer tried 3 hard takoffs and let the clutch out slower each time and nothing. Even revered her up to 3500-4000 rpms and let it fly. Those of you who just got a new clutch hate to be the bearer of bad news Sorry. I did not get the new part number though that they are using now maybe the only good thing for ya.
