OK, I have a 2007 Hyundai Elantra 5 speed, 60K miles, original owner – me, and I drive like an old man. For the last few weeks it has been getting harder to put into gear – have to push the clutch more to the floor and get a light grinding noise when it goes in.
Clutch fluid level normal, no fluid noted from either the master or slave cylinders. No fluid leaking into the cabin from the master cylinder. Peeling back the boot on the slave cylinder, dry as a bone.
I can easily put it into gear with the car off, and it does not get any better when the car is on if I pump the clutch. No slipping of the clutch has been noted, and I can easily kill the motor if I let up on the clutch in any gear while parked.
I think that is all I can explain. What I am curious about, does this sound like it is time for a new clutch?
Thanks!!
