Q: Clutch not disengaging

asked by on February 29, 2016

I recently replaced the clutch pedal, clutch, and transmission. The clutch pedal does not seem like it is disengaging the clutch after the vehicle has warmed up.

You likely need to bleed the pressure out of the hydraulic system. Improper installation could also have caused the problems. I would have a certified mechanic, such as one from YourMechanic, inspect your clutch issue and make the needed repairs needed to have this issue resolved.
