Default T56 Sudenly Hard To Get Every Gear!

My 2003 LS1 T56 (Holden Commodore, Australian) had the clutch, pressure plate, flywheel and slave changed 5000km ago with a genuine kit.

The clutch will not fully disengage, so I cannot change gears and have to "key" the car to move.

I replaced the master cylinder and have the same problem.

After a bleed the clutch works a few times then reverts back to not disengaging and this has been proven many times.

The gearbox is now out and clutch assembly looks like new.

Can anyone with a similar experience please help.

Thankyou

Sounds like a hydraulic problem.

I've seen bad slaves cause really strange problems without looking out of the ordinary. Be my first guess. Best of luck

I went through three consecutive stock masters. Just cause you replaced the master, if you didn't use a quality master, it could still be the issue
