    G'day all,
    I was coming home last night after some spirited driving, went to downshift coming into a hard corner and my clutch pedal is rock hard:confused: after cleaning the mess in my pants I rev match her back to a servo and start having a look.

    -No clutch fluid at all
    -The clutch fork is being pushed up against the gearbox case :confused:

    I run some new fluid through it and straight out it goes on to the ground from the slave cylinder, so I pull it out and wiggle the clutch fork loose and the clutch pedal goes straight to the floor.

    So now I have her home, new slave cylinder on the way but the reason why the fork would have been jammed up against the casing is beyond me. Any ideas? Or reasoning why a new slave, a good bleed and some luck would lead to this may happen again. Anything but suggesting aliens, god or Kim Jong Uns first suprise attack would be useful at this stage...

    Does the clutch fork move around freely? If so could be a sheared pivot ball.

    I am going to drop the box and have a good look to see if there is any damage.
