    PLEASE READ!!! I have to make a big statement! I've made statements abt starting off in 2nd with 4.10 axles a few times in this forum. It's usually easy with a little slippage but I just got a clutch recall on my new JLR abt the clutch friction plate overheating and fracturing so any extra...

    Hello! I had a 01 Sport with a 5-speed manual. If memory serves me correctly, the clutch engaged as soon as it was coming up from the floor. I just bought a 2020 Willy's 6 speed manual with 18150 miles. I realize it is new technology, however, it goes down really easy and doesn't engage until...

    Clutch started feeling spongy and had way less compression than usual. Decided to replace the slave cylinder today and it was much better until about 10 minutes of driving...that's when it got bad. The clutch pedal completely lost compression and now it will only shift into gear when it's turned...

    Hello everyone, I just finished installing a brand new EXEDY HD clutch (JEK-7039HD). Everything went well, i did screw up the slave cylinder and get heaps of air in my clutch lines, but with some innovation i managed to suck the air out and get it all pressurised with a new slave. (Why on earth...

    I just rebuilt my clutch at roughly 160k miles on my 97 tj… new (upgraded) plate, clutch housing, fork, throw out bearing, and master/slave assembly. Shifts through the gears great, but with my foot off the clutch pedal I get a new noise like a baseball card in the spokes of a bike and...

    The clutch on my recently purchased 2001 TJ 4.0 has a very high engagement position. I am 6ft 1 and so this is quite uncomfortable. On all of my previous car clutches the engagement was always much lower. Getting the car to engage in 1st and 2nd gear is particularly hard. I did a little rooting...

    Purchased a Rubicon JLU with a stick. I love this thing. But this thing is built by accountants.. the drive by wire is so delayed, it makes it impossible to leave the line smooth and the clutch pedal assembly is so cheaply made it’s impossible to shift, once it gets warm the pedal binds, and it...

    Got a bad clutch pedal position sensor on my 2007 JKU. Need to jump it out to start it. I've done that before but forgot which pins need to be jumped. Any help?

    Guys, I am new here so if there's a better place to post this, or if this has been gone through already I apologize. But, I purchased a 2018 JLU with 36K miles on it a few weeks ago. When i bought it, it was cool out and the AC was on, with a hard top. It seems to not happen when the AC is on...

    I live in Baton Rouge, LA. I have a clutch fluid leak in ‘87 YJ and assume it is coming from the slave cylinder which is inside the manual transmission. The part is $135 to replace it but you have to remove the transmission. Anyone have recommendations or a mechanic that can fix it? Transmission...

    I have had an issue with my AX-15 transmission on my 4.0L. It can be hard to get into first and second and reverse. It also makes rattling as I engage first and vibrates as I drive down the road or let off the gas completely. I believe that it is the clutch and the throwout bearing. I was...

    Hello everyone. I finally made an account over here and I am gad to be part of this. I have a question, maybe it has happened to some of you or maybe you have any type of suggestions. When I am accelerating (normal speeds nothing crazy) and let go off the gas pedal everything is good until I...

    I have a 2016 manual Jeep that's now having problems with what I think is the clutch. Never though of clutch slip like this however. Seems like releasing the clutch it's almost lumpy. Like engaging and not - it bounces me around and feels like it's going to stall then power. Really weird. jeep...

    I hear a grinding noise in my 04 Sport Wrangler 5spd manual. I read some forums and have confused thoughts. When I push my clutch in the grinding noise stops. I don't have enough to take it to a shop and want to do it myself. If I do it myself, what all should I replace? Edit : I know I need to...

    Hey WF! So I have a weird issue here... One day early last week, I started to be unable to shift gears easily. It felt to me live a failed slave cylinder, so I installed a new one and bled the system thoroughly. Shifting was still a bit stiff, so I bled it some more. I then took it for a test...

    I have a 2014 JKU (6-speed manual) w/ ~118k miles. Long story short I made the mistake of letting a friend borrow it and he crashed. My transmission now sounds like a supercharger spooling up. I have several questions into which I’m hopeful you experts can offer insight. 1) Assuming the...

    This may be obvious but don't want to risk putting in the wrong thing. The previous owner told me to keep an eye on the clutch fluid weekly (see below). Wanting to top it off but unsure what fluid I can put in there. In the manual it says "Brake and Hydraulic Clutch Fluid DOT 3". Will the...
