Just recently I have been having interesting things happen to this damn car. Just had to replace a thermostat and both hoses that come from the coolant overflow reservoir and last night on my ride home i lost entirely all clutch pedal. For about a month i have been having rough shift problems at first shifting from 2nd to 3rd then that went away and then a rough/grinding shift from 3rd to 4th started to occur. i have had a stage 1 clutch put in it about a year ago today b/c the stock one exploded like many others on this site due to a bad pilot bearing. I feel like the hydrolic system has a kink in it maybe an air pocket. idk and don't have money for a shop. I hope someone can assist me i have looked over the stickies and still don't know where to start with diagnosing this problem.
