My brothers 2005 Honda Element was having a strange issue with the clutch. Even with the pedal depressed, it seemed like the clutch was still engaged making it difficult to shift gears.
In this video I diagnose the problem and replace the clutch. For additional information on this job, see the engine replacement videos linked below.
Thanks for watching!
