Clutch problem after installing upgraded CSC

Me thinks the CSC is not fully disengaging when shifting. Perhaps the new CSC is larger and require more fluid volume to extend far enough to fully disengage. Mayhaps id you give the MC rod a few twist to make it longer, that will push more fluid into the CSC when the clutch pedal is depressed.

Our CSC is the same size as the stock unit, No adjustment is required.

Just turning the master cylinder adjustment rod a few turns is a bad idea, there is more to it than that. You must adjust the pedal height anytime master cylinder rod is adjusted for more stroke or you could cause major issues with the clutch system.

Sometimes the lowly pilot bearing is forgotten. In our case it is only a bronze bushing and once it dries what little lube that it has or wears to some degree it creates friction on the input shaft which will causes grinding when shifting gears at a stand still. Hopefully you added a little lube when changing the csc or better yet replaced this $2 part.
