Ok, I have an '06 TL Manual. When seems that it was intermittently losing pressure when I held the clutch for awhile, so when I was ready to take off, it would be a limp pedal that after I would pump up would be ok. So I take it to the dealer and the service writer says the tech felt it and they want $400 to replace the master and slave clutch cylinder (as they do them in pairs). Ok, I say this is premature with only 65K miles. Honda agreed to pay half. A week later I think I feel it again, take it in and they replace both parts - great. Now I feel it a 3rd time and I really paid attention.... I was in 2nd and left it there when I flew up to a light. Put it in neutral and waited for it to turn green. When I went to engage the clutch, it was limp again. It only does it when I am hard on the acceleration. Does anyone know why? Thanks

stop sitting at light with the clutch engaged- its putting wear on it every second your foot is on it, and the TL clutch has a special system so it `feels` good at the pedal right up to the day it just stops working-
you may be close to end of life for the clutch- seen failure/wearout anywhere after 20!

did they replace the slave (very common failure BTW) and master once or twice?
may need to be rebled- some air was in it still or you got a bad part- this happens
Back to the dealer-- as all repairs carry their own warranty

Yes, they replaced both.
I guess I should re explain because this is hard to pin point. I thought it was when I left it engaged for a bit (I really don't keep it in at a light).

The problem actually appears after I drive aggressively and shift quickly from say 2nd to 3rd. Then I come to a stop (in neutral). Once I push the clutch in - that's when I feel the limpness. It has something to do with fast driving all out or quick shifts - something.

there is a 3rd gear prob with a large thread on here- ck it out

what I meant was did they replace both parts one time or 2 times and thats where you are- looks like just once?

Take it back- you are not happy~

Im guessing clutch wearout will be the next diagnosis
