It sounds like the hydraulic clutch is failing or the car just has a light clutch feel. I suggest you have a local shop push the clutch and see what they think.

at a minimum the pressure plate but not changing everything while in there would be silly

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

In a manual 2001 Hyundai Accent, the clutch cable could be adjusted. The adjustment point is on the cable 'pad' where it enters the firewall in the engine compartment.

To adjust, the slack or free play must be decreased. This is done by turning the adjusting nut clockwise. Check back by pressing on the clutch pedal to your preference.

SOURCE: Clutch shudder and loose gears

It sounds to me like the clutch is slipping or it was not properly adjusted. I would take it back and tell them to take it out for a drive around the block. If they still refuse to do anything about it, take it to another garage and get their opinion. Better yet, get a written estimate. Then take it back to the garage that put the clutch in and tell them either fix the problem for free or you are going to take it elsewhere to get it fixed and sue them in small claims court. I do know that when i replaced my clutch, you need to have about a 100 mile break in. But still, the gears should not be loose and it should shudder. If anything, a new clutch will grab hard with very little play untill it is broke in.

SOURCE: New clutch won't work.

I too have a 2003 Ranger and am on my second clutch, master clyinder and slave cylinder at 90k miles. Assuming all parts are installed correctly I would check the slave cylinder next to the master in engine compartment--it is the small plastic resevoir. Don't bother trying to bleed as you are wasting your time. Remove rubber boot after removing cap and you will probably find a lack of fluid or dirt in bottom. It has a one way valve and once you **** in dirt and air it's all over. It comes primed with fluid from the factory--I belive the part is made in France. Also when you remove you will have to break plastic washer under dash which is worth about $.02, but Ford charges around $30--it connects linkage with master cylinder. Replace master and the washer and you will probably have clutch pedal and be able to engage gears.

I have a problem on the Nissan Navara 2006 model with the manual gearbox. I changed the Clutch Plate and gear 5 started popping out in motion. Please assist with the solutions.

RWD or 4wd, ?
where does the gear swift fit and how.//
Gen2 pickup truck D40 model?
the 5 speed or 6 speed box? both are sold then., M/T

in 5th gear, and foot off the clutch pedal, car in motion fast.
box jumps to neutral all by itself causes:
1: bad shifter linkages. loose or damaged parts here.(hope)
2: inside box , shifting forks damaged or huge wear. (all bad news)
3: shift fork to rail detente balls bad or spring bad to ball.
4; wrecked 5th gear syncro ring. (cheap easy fix for a gear head.(me)
5: -5th gear syncro dogs on the gear wrecked, wrong and bad.
6: bearings in the main shaft are worn and causes 5th gear to jog wildly. and fail and jump out of gear to neutral.

to prove is it linkages or the box bad.?? is goal #1
is not easy that fast, ? danger be careful.

but put rear axle on jack stands and drive it.
even shifting it by hand at the box.
how to do that is not easy and no car named that is sold USA
my 4wd car RWD , i can shift the box with all covers pulled on top of my box seen here
ive done this
http://www.fixkick.com/tranny/shifting/cheating1.jpg

the car and body and linkage are not all the same.
and what is there , I see with my eyes and now what to do
cables or not or linkage or not or lever direct shift as photo above is.
Ive not one idea what linkage you have.
but if you can shift the box, with linkage pulled that is a test.
if not replace the linkages that is loose, bent,cracked or worn or damaged in any way. replace it cheap
no box fix is cheap on labor side.

my guess at clutch change out you did not do linkage adjustments in the service manual or put it back wrong or bolts loose ?

good cluck that is all I have lacking photos of shifter and linkage below it.

Hi i drive a 03 ford transit when you press the clutch pedal it feels fine but you cant select gears only 5 gear when you try to get first gear its like the clutch is not being pressed

Your clutch disc may be worn out, when the disc wears completely down the pressure plate goes over center and that causes the clutch to slightly engage when the pedal is depressed and you grind gears, most clutches last about 75000 miles.

How do you bleed the clutch on a 1995 dodge stratus

Sounds like the slave cylinder inside bell housing is leaking. Replace both cylinders when fixing. the clutch plate and flywheel should be inspected for wear.

91 nissan pathfinder 5 speedmanual.... Clutch pedal feels stiff and when i start it in gear the truck lunges forward like the clutch it still engaged.... Master and slave have been replaced and all hyd....

It really sound like you are going to need a new clutch. If the slave or master cylinders were bad they would feel loose, a stiff pedal usually means something came apart in the pressure plate.

Clutch shudder and loose gears

Who ever did the job has a right to fix it. They probably didn't want to deal with it and waste their time and money to remedy the problem. Call them, and tell them, that if they don't want to find the cause, that you will get a lawyer involved, that should put a fire under their butts. Keep your receipts for proof of what was done.

Low / Soft Clutch Pedal, 1995 Rodeo 2W 2.6L

my rodeo had the same problem i corrected it by bleeding the slave cylinder. and is located on the driver side on the gearbox you will find it if you follow the line from the master cylinder down to the gearbox and if that helps but happens again it might have to be replaced.
