Ok - I am having problems with my FD. My FD does not want to go into gear if the car is at a stop. It acts like the clutch is not disengaged. If I shut off the car and then put it into gear and then start it I can get the car going. Once I am driving shifts from 2nd to 3rd or 4th or 5th are normal. But coming to a stop it will not go into 1st or 2nd. I have had it in the shop but the shop is unsure of the problem - they keep saying it is my pressure plate or pilot bearing but I am not sure that is the problem. I have an ACT heavy duty pressure plate, street strip disc, and a 9.5lb flywheel plus a apex short shifter. I had them adjust the pedal and replace the clutch line with a SS unit from Corksport and it seemed to fix the problem for about 40 miles but now it is worse. When I try to start the car in gear the car want to move forward even though the clutch pedal is to the floor. So it does not want to start with it in gear. And now I can feel a vibrating through clutch pedal when I push it in. My car is at the shop again. One other thing it does and I am not sure if it is the tranny or my short shifter, when I try to put it into 1st gear it sometimes goes into this place other than 1st. Further to the left and is not in gear. What could the problems be? Clutch master cylinder? Tranny? Clutch pressure plate? Slave cylinder? Pilot bearing? Thanks in advance!
