Why cant you get pressure on the clutch in a 1999 Saturn?

Often a worn clutch disk will not show symptoms when the vehicle has a hydraulic clutch system. The hydraulics "self adjust", leaving the driver surprised when the clutch disk fails altogether.

The clutch disk is simple, it is literally pinched between the pressure plate and the flywheel. When the disk wears too thin to fill the space between the pressure plate and the flywheel, there will be nothing for the pressure plate to press against, and there will be no transfer of power between the engine and the transmission.

To repair the clutch, the engine and/or transmission must be removed so that you can get to the clutch assembly, which is between the two.

It's a significant enough job that you'll need someone to do it for you.

When you drive your 2001 Saturn on the highway after a few minutes you lose the pressure on the clutch and can not change gears allow the car to cool its fine until next highway trip what is wrong?

Not too sure on this one.. try bleeding the clutch, also check your clutch fluid which is in a reservoir on the back right by your master cylinder.. if its low... top it with brake fluid. It could be a bad slave cylinder.... Cant hurt getting it check by a mechanic.... Hope this was helpful.... Cheers, and GOODLUCK!

The clutch on my 1995 ford ranger wont release after i bled it the pedal moves fine but it doesn't engage the clutch so i cant take it out of gear?

Assuming you mean the clutch won't disengage and the system has been bled properly, the pressure plate may be damaged or the clutch disc is installed backwards (if the clutch was just replaced). Also, with some vehicles the clutch master cylinder has to be bench bled before installation.


Why would the clutch pedal on your 1994 f350 stay on the floor so you cant change gear?

I had this problem. For me the pressure plate was sticking and broke the linkage. Take it to the dealer for replacement.


How do you change a clutch in a Nissan truck?

drop the drive shaft, disconnect all the wires to the transmission, drop the cross members, remove the transmission. You are now at the clutch housing. remove the six bolts hold the clutch pressure plate. once you do that the clutch disk will fall out. Inspect the pressure plate. ( if you can move the tines more than a inch then replace it). clean up the fly wheel with emory cloth. This is very important!!! If you cant figure this out then buy a owners workshop manual
