Oh and my dealership replaced mine at no cost
I was mr. flatbed. It started a few weeks ago with losing clutch pressure slowly. after some trial and error i found the cause to be one scenario. driving withought shifting. like being in traffic, stuck in third, with no reason to shift. just putting along. or the highway cruising in 6th - same thing. if i drive around town it appears mostly fine as long as you keep shifting. Then about 2 weeks ago I was on the highway and started losing pressure fast. i was able to pump it up a few times then I had the pedal go to the floor and that was that. Couldn't get anything back. Stuck in 6th gear. Made it into a commuter lot and after checking everything, had to call a wrecker. The tow company is also a mechanical shop and they diagnosed it as the master cylinder failure. if i had them do it, it was a little cheaper and waved half the tow. i knew the master was out of warranty so i had them do it. i got my clutch back but the source issue was still there - the slowly losing pressure. Assumed the slave was covered under powertrain so i brought it to the dealer on saturday and you know where i am at right now.
