Sounds like air in the system to me. Clutch fluid is like most other fluids, the hotter you get it, the thinner it is, if the seals were crapping out, hotter fluid would = more problems, not cold fluid.

That's the one. You will only need one bottle. And you will still have plenty left over for a couple flushings. It doesn't take much.

did the line fix it?
I had the same problem not that long ago and the dealer replaced the "helper spring" which I didnt question and I should have... issue got fixed but I feel the problem coming back and want to beat it to the punch!

^^^ i keep ignoring that issue because its going to be a bad day when that lock solenoid takes a crap.

what does a new one cost? i figured i should wait and hope it goes out while under warrenty but im guessing my warrenty is probably up by now or about up... i have a 2009 with 36000 miles purchased october of 2009... actually not even sure what the warrenty specs are lol

I wonder if you have to actually have this installed or if can be bypassed?

I guess you could always remove it and see if the car will turnover. I know who to ask about this though.
