happened to me this morning. was first at a stop light and a bus was stopped in my lane up ahead after the intersection. when it turned green i started aggressively so i can get ahead and switch over and my clutch pedal stuck to the floor. i kept stepping on it and finally it went back up. it never happened to me before. mine's an 06 ~20k

 

happened after some donuts

 

lol

 

i have a jwt clutch fleywheel and ss lines with dot 4 fluid and still once in a while it still happenes..........i guess im going sythetic dot 5

 

listen buddy it might not be that... my clutch slave cylinder was leaking... you might wanna have your dealer check it out. I was going to replace my clutch/flywheel. now it feels like a new car. everything replaced under warranty.

 

I have a 2006 and I don't think the clutch has ever stuck, but I do notice almost every time it rains that the pedal feels kind of 'gummy' when I take my foot off of it, like it doesn't want to spring out with as much force as usual. So what happens is I end up over-revving a bit because the clutch seems to take longer to engage, but then it engages and I keep going. I haven't had any clutch burning issues, at least not that I could smell.

 

I had this problem back in April 2007. Clutch stuck to the floor in the middle of driving normally. It took the dealer 2 months to find out what was wrong with it and fix it. I still don't know what they replaced though, but it was done under warranty. Haven't had a problem since, but I haven't even driven my car sincethen either =/

 

I have a stock 05 32K that has this issue. Got it last summer and it stuck a couple times when launching. Had the dealer flush and check it. Seemed OK.
Brought the car out for the fisrt time this year, went about 10mph for 1/4 mile to my lane, stopped then tried to launch. Pedal came up about 3/4" and engine revved, clutch smelled realll bad. Temp was 38 deg, car temp was still pegged on cold. Can't see this being a boiling issue. Is it my master cylinder ? Clutch is fine everywhere else. I'm not sure what to try.

 

I would have the dealer check the master cylinder. If it's not that then just get a SS clutch line with High temp fluid and you won't have this issue anymore. I have been launching my car extremely hard since I got the clutch line with high temp fluid and my clutch has not stuck to the floor at all.

 

happened to me the first time yester day and it smelled like death for about 2hrs i have and 05 wit 20k

 

It happens to me 50% of the time I go to the track. Or even when im driving normal, the pedal gets really spongy.

 

...heh...that's exactly why I got me one with an auto tranny! If you check out these threads SYSTEMATICALLY, you'll notice LOTSA peeves regarding MTs on our beasts. ON THE OTHER HAND, ATs ain't got EVEN ONE complaint!!!
That should be a tell-tale sign, guys!

Smart old-timer from the AST zone!

 

we get it...you like your auto tranny. why do you feel the need to try to justify that the AT is better than an MT?

 

b/c he's just that way...here's what he said to use ppl with OC issues in the OC thread

hmm... my clutch stuck and yeah wouldnt pop out. but there was no bad burning clutch smell.. fluid was good... have had several suggustions on it being the slave cylinder and i know the clutch is going out too you could hear it. so after speed shifting ohh about 40 miles. she's now sitting in the shop. we're trying to figure out if it is the slave cylinder or what. anyone have a clue?

 

It sound like the seal on yuor slave mate! happened to me on friday. just remove the rubber boot on your slave and i had oil **** out of it because the seal had blown out! Cheap fix tho!

 

Hey how did you get them to check you slave cylinder, isnt it located inside the transmission, i asked them the check it and they said they couldnt b/c it was too big of a job

 

no no... its under the car... just put it on a lifter or have the dealer do it 4 u. specially if your car is under warranty!

 

Mine has started doing this. I've ordered a steel shielded clutch line and am going to flush it out with some Motul. I expect it to fix the issue.

 

Mines sticks too but after real hard runs. My clutch is weak right now.
