Wilco88 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Hello there I know there's a bunch of clutch related posts but I feel mine is different. Okay my car is early 95 WRX ej20 with TD05H Pretty sure the gearbox and clutch is factory. Car was driving fine and everything but then I had to put the car into storage and was not driven for like 6 months. After 6 months I needed to move the car and noticed some issues with the clutch. It would stick to the floor and would come up if I pressed it a few times. It would be intermittent issue not every time but lots Clutch would press in and stay there but it would come up if I pushed on it a few times. I thought it would be the clutch but now I'm reading it could simply be air in the lines or bad master cylinder??? Would the fact the car was not used for months and stored affect the fluid in the clutch lines? Should I get a professional to bleed the clutch or what do you think I don't want to go out and buy new master or slave if it's not needed? Thank you sir.

idosubaru Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Yours isn't different - it's exactly like every other garbage-reliability-issues-high-maintenance hydraulic clutch ever made. i'd convert it back to cable clutch. but i'm weird.... press clutch while watching the slave piston (need a helper unless you built a robot or equivalent) slave piston doesn't move = pressure loss which is usually the slave, hose, both, or master which is unlikely. slave and hose fail often enough that it's not uncommon to preventatively replace the slave cylinder and hose. slave piston moves = broken fork or clutch issue.
