Ok, i recently was driving my car and discovered that the clutch wasnt disengaging. One minute i was able to depress the clutch and select gears, and the next, it was like the car was permanently engaged, regardless of whether or not i pushed the clutch pedal in. I can shift the car but it feels like shifting it without using the clutch pedal. I've checked the master and slave cylinder, their ok. I also flushed the system and put all new fluid in it, but it made no difference. What else could be causing this. Thankx!

PS: The clutch kit is only 10 months old and the car has been babied throughout that time.

Bent shift fork or bad release bearing if I had to guess. I had the same thing happen to me today on the freeway. I Had to tow it home. I'll let you know what mine turns out to be.

Check the easiest thing first, the nut on the clutch rod (the threaded bit that links your clutch pedal to the cylinder) may have come loose, adjust it so the disengage point is higher up, if this helps or fixes it and you have no other issues then you're good to go.
