ziderapple 0 Posted March 9, 2007 I just jumped in my car to go and rescue my brother as he had broken down, and I put my foot on the clutch and it fell to the floor, I can pull it back up to its normal position and it'll stay there untill I touch it again, its like its getting pulled down. I have never worked on a hyraulic clutch before so I'm not sure on this one. Cars is a 94 VR. Thanks in advance. Chris. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 9, 2007 Look for a leak and check fluid level - slave sylinder gone most likely if it's never been changed... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziderapple 0 Posted March 9, 2007 Will do, Thanks. Its not a total disaster as I have got next week off work to do my chains, clutch and fit my charger, in fact I picked up all my bits from the stealers today, I think my car knew... I had to laugh though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 9, 2007 Yeah it would have started to go the minute you put your pin number in at VW.... it's the Corrado effect! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DEL VR6 0 Posted March 10, 2007 i have had a very similar problem to you recently. see this thread: Del's Clutch Problem Thread. Unless you are going to do this yourself.... First thing you need to do is take it to someone that knows VW's, cos most back street garages will fob you off with a gearbox out quote. When you find the right place, ask them to bleed your clutch for you, and look for leaks in either the slave or master cylinder. You may need to replace one or both, and the cost should be around 200 notes for both incl labour. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jstar 0 Posted March 12, 2007 Ye. Same thing happened to mine ages ago. In my case it was the slave that went, But I believe the same effect will happen if the master goes or both ;> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
