calling all transmission gurus and gods:
I will make this as short as I can but there is a lot to say so on with it:
A couple of weeks ago I was driving my car and as I got off of the interstate it started really shifting hard and I couldn't hardly get it into gear at all. I wasn't too far from home I got it there and decided to try changing the trans fluid since it had about 20,000 miles on it and going ahead and bleeding the clutch, so I did those two things and the car felt good again.
Last Friday night I was on my way home and sitting at a light my car just started shaking almost like letting off the clutch and not pushing in the gas, but I was holding the clutch in. So I started to take off and the car sputtered and died completely again I had the clutch in. Went to start it in gear no luck, put it in neutral and it started went to put it in gear no good. It would not go into any gear, finally I got it to start with it in first and just letting off the break but keeping the clutch pushed in the car started moving forward almost as if I was accelerating, I tried to shift no good so after screwing around for a couple more minuted I gave up and had it towed. This time I did notice a "burning clutch" smell.
So yesterday I decided that I would replace the master and slave cylinder did that, bled the system and it was good to go, shifting smoother than ever before. then tonight, had the car in my driveway went to pull in and the damn thing would not go into gear again....
So to finally get to my question does any body know what else I could try?
Some info about my car:
103,000 miles
JDM 6 speed lsd transmission +/-40,000 miles
tried both syncromesh and honda fluid
exedy stage1 organic clutch with about 40,000 miles
JDM type R flywheel
I have searched and searched which is how I figured out what I have tried above so any help or thoughts would be great. Thanks, sorry for the long story.
