2002 Hyundai Accent won't go into gear.

I replaced the master and slave cylinder and bled both thoroughly and the clutch will not disengage. The gears just grind while the cars running. I can put it in gear while the car's off but when I try to start it with the clutch depressed, the car will **** as if I'm not pressing the clutch pedal at all.

Probably the arm that holds the rtelease bearing in the bell housing has slipped out of place. Get someone to depress the clutch while you check the arm is not loose. If the cylinders are working then its most likely the arm is disconected. If you are lucky you may get it put back in place by looking through the inspection hole but most likely you will have to seperate the engine and gearbox. Sorry I havent better news for you.

Its possible you may have a faulty thrust bearing,, this is situated inside the gear box, where the slave cylinder is, its directly behind the clutch pressure / drive plate

2005/6 Hyundai Tucson. Why is the slave cylinder arm lever fully extended?

It sounds like something not put back correctly or adjusted. Was the slave cylinder arm push in when you bled the system? There may be air behind it. Did you use a pressure bleed system, slave up to Master. Lots of help in the links.

Replaced clutch and slave cylinder in 2012 Kia sportage and car will not go in gear with engine running

Did you get all the air out of the hydraulic lines and master and slave cylinder, if not the clutch will not fully disengage and you can't go into gear. If this is the case have it vacuum bled.

Hydraulic clutch is not disengaging, when put into 1st gear the engine conks out. Replaced the master cylinder and bled the line - still conks out. Do I need too replace the slave cylinder or what?

as per your description problem not clutch since able to start in gear and drive without stall problem sounds more like a fuel delivery not the clutch

Manual. Clutch pedal very soft. Sometimes pedal stays down. Unable to change gears until engine stalls or is turned off. Worse in very cold weather. Fluid level OK.

the master cylinder that operates both the clutch and brakes is either bad or needs bled,or could be leak in either brakes or clutch slave cylinder

02 accent slave cylinder leak and gear grind

Does the car want to pull when sitting still in gear with your foot on the clutch? If so, I would say that your clutch is not fully engaging and could be the cause of your grinding when changing gears. If not then I would think the clutch is operating fully and the synchros are worn and need replaced. But either way, with metalic fluid being in the slave cylinder dust boot, the slave cylinder needs changed.

Why clutch in Hyundai Accent 2001. Not disengaging

Your clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder is bad. The slave is cheaper and easier to replace - I would replace it first.

Hard shifting 04 hyundai accent.

Check your clutch fluid level in the clutch master cylinder's reservoir. If low add brake fluid. If very low or dry, the clutch hydraulic system should be bled to remove air in the line. Bleeding is done down at the clutch slave cylinder on the transaxle.
I would not recommend using a lighter oil. It may cause early wear of the transmission.

Why is my gear shift so hard to move??

I believe your clutch is not disengaging fully. When this happens it may be hard to get into first gear but subsequet shifts are easier due to the fact the vehicle is moving. You probably have a hydraulic clutch system which is low on fluid or may have air in the system. Before shifting into first gear or reverse try pumping the clutch pedal 5 or 6 times then shifting, if it goes into gear easier after this then you probably have air in the system, it can be bled similar to bleeding brakes. If this doesnt work you might be low on fluid, or have a bad master or slave cylinder.
