TSX2424

I have 04 Tsx with manual transmission, the other day the clutch pedal started sticking to the floor and I could not put in gear, I had to turn off the car to put it in gear. This happen all of sudden I had no problem with my clutch before It was perfect until this happen. Yesterday I bleed the clutch thought it would be air in the system but it didn't change anything. I checked near the master cylinder and slave cylinder there was no leak nothing, also the clutch fluid level is good. I was wondering what would be the problem.
Thanks.

Master cylinder internal leak can allow clutch to collapse. You may be able to get some clutch movement by pumping, but from description leak may be enough to prevent any clutch pressure. New master cylinder is likely fix.

Check by hand pumping the clutch (lift/pump) while observing w/ an assistant the clutch slave cylinder for movement. If movement develops watch to see if movement is lost while holding clutch on floor. If yes, the leaking MC is confirmed.

Above assumes your observations of no external leaks is correct. Check slave cylinder boot for evidence of captured brake fluid.

Not a bad idea to replace both MC and slave cylinder together.

good luck

I did check the movement it seems fine, there is no leak at all.

So if you're able to pump the clutch pedal by lifting/pushing and move the clutch slave cylinder piston, the problem must be a leaking MC. An internal leak past the piston would not result in fluid loss, but would prevent clutch function.

ok thanks, i will check into that also i been reading on other forms people are saying it could be pressure plate.

TexasHonda

If pressure plate and/or clutch release fork were offering no resistance, you might get the symptoms you have.

Try pushing the clutch release fork by hand.

If it's very firm (probably not movable w/ hand effort alone), then clutch pressure plate should be OK.

If it rattles and can be moved by hand, then something in clutch assy; pressure plate or release fork is damaged.

good luck
