cubastreet Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 shagged throwout bearing might do it, but only until the clutch released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Does it do it when no pedals pushed? If so warped discs or sticky piston. Otherwise I have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blakamin Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 pedal-box-area isn't loose/bent (causing clutch to activate brake a little) no idea really, just taking random stabs in the dark... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
