I think you mean that the clutch pedal has to pressed to the floor to change gears. Could be either
* the slave or master cylinder is leaking
* the clutch is nearly worn out.

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.

Usually it is the master cylinder for the clutch. It is located on the firewall directly behind the clutch pedal.

I have a mazda bravo 2 wheel drive ute I can start car and press in clutch place in gear and release clutch and take of but then can change into next gear and with foot on clutch the car still moves
This sounds like the clutch, at the engine end, has a problem. The clutch plate might not be releasing correctly. When the engine is Off the clutch isn't spinning so doesn't affect the gear change. You might need to have the clutch replaced.
Your only sensible option is to get a Good Mechanic to remove the gearbox and inspect the clutch parts.
This, unfortunately, will not be a cheap fix.

Just changed the slave cylinder and master cylinder bled it but still no clutch
when bleeding did you press pedal really softly at every press or did you press it as if changing gear ? if as changing gear i expect you have pushed the cylinder piston past the end stop , you will have to dismantle cylinder and manually pull the piston back and make sure the seal is on the end , if not it will be stuck up the cylinder , carefully pry out and refit to piston , put a tiny amount of vaseline around the seal before reassembly and bleed again but press pedal very slowly , keep me posted if you wish

85 toyota pickup clutch wont engage
The gear box should be okay. Check the clutch-watch if the clutch fork on the bell housing moves when someone presses the clutch. If it doesn't move, the cable needs adjusting, or if hydraulic clutch diagnose the clutch master and slave cylinders. Either one should cause the clutch fork to move and engage the clutch.

Freelander clutch
check out the operation of the clutch system .IT is difficult to rationalise a hydraulic clutch because if it is slipping that means that the pressure plate is being held off and not fully engaging but it also means that when pressing on the clutch the there would be no problem changing gears . But if you have a cable clutch operation then it is possible that the cable is jamming inside the outer cover and holding the pressure plate off ( slipping) and gear problems. If it is cable then replace the cable first. If hydraulic then it may mean box out for a new clutch kit.

Hi I have a V reg Ford Focus 1.8, when i accelerate my rev counter goes really high, the car becomes sluggish. This happens when i also change gear at any speed. It is like i am driving with the clutch...
Hi, it is likely your clutch is slipping, perhaps because it has worn out or the springs have softened from heat. I'm afraid you will need a new clutch. :o(

I just got a new used 1995 honda accord and already i'm really unhappy. The gears stick terribly and the breaks... you have to push down really hard and they don't break fast. What can i do about the gears...
the gears are sticking? is the shifter just really tight and hard to move from one gear to the next, or even just wiggle around in neutral? if so, you may need new bushings for it. which are not very expensive. IF the shifter wiggles around easily in neutral, but hangs in a gear when you press the clutch in all the way, you could need a clutch, OR hopefully you can just try bleeding the clutch line. at the master cylinder on the transmission. the breaks.... do you have to push the pedal down really hard, or really soft and far? if you're putting a lot of pressure on the pedal but you don't have to push the brake pedal all the way to the floor, that would indicate to me that your pads and rotors are glazed over. you should replace the rotors, pads and have the calipers checked, and have the brakes bled. if you've got to push the pedal all the way to the floor, there's a good chance all you'll need is to have the brakes bled.

loosen the bleed screw.Then check if you can press the pedal down.If you can you have to change the clutch Assembly.If you still find it hard to depress then the master cylinder needs to be replaced.Hope this was useful.
