Ok guys, I had the recall work done about 2k miles ago. Eveything was great, car held ALOT more power than it had. BUT today was just an all around bad day.
It started this morning. My clutch pedal engages within the first innch or so(thats from the top/all the way out) at about noon after a 10min drive to my grandparents house, the pedal wasnt engaging/dis untill mid way. I checked fluid levels and all was well, the clutch res reading middle of max/min lines. Same ride home and the pedal engaged/dis even lower. Got home washed the car spent some time with the gf. Took the car out at about 9pm and after a 15min drive the clutch pedal was nearly on the floor, litterally endaging/dis about 1/2 -1 in from the floor. Needless to say I was running out of pedal. It actually got back enought to where if i took my foot of the break at a redlight the car would go forward. Checked the clutch fluid again and it was BONE dry. Went bought some, filled it and clutch came back after doing some pumping. Seemed we didnt need a bleed. Took a drive this one was alittle longer, and the clutch came back to life.
Went to do the ride home and getting to 6th gear it was fine. After about 15-20mins of 6th gear riding it came time to exit. And when it came time to use the clutch, it said "F you". It took 30 mins to complete the reamaining 2mile drive due to a clutch that just wouldnt do its job. After forcing in gears, prob doing more harm, I got home. Checked the fluids and it is back at the mid way point, being as we filled it to MAX I think i may have a leak. Bringing it to my dealer in the am.

PS- After the recall work I am one of the ones who experienced the "wind" noise while the tranny was cold and at first, rough 2nd gear shifts. Hope my spelling and grammer are ok, Im dead tired and pissed.
