ok i have a stock clutch and everything was fine. 2 days ago i start the car and the clutch pedal is feeling weird. its normal until its almost at the point of engaging and then its pretty stiff. i dont have a clue to what it could be. im not low on fluid either.

ok just wanted someone elses opinion.my clutch does nothing. i can push it and it returns no big deal. but it wont go into any gear, i can prolly force it into a gear but it feels like the car is goin to jump forward.this would be the release cylinder right?

Fork or pressure plate/diagram



Does the motor lower its RPMs when pressed in?

My clutch was doing that, replaced clutch and pressure plate to resolve the issue. I think the springs in the pressure plate get weak and that causes it to not fully release.
