Default Clutch Anger Management

I have never felt that the m6 was shifting as smoothly as it should. Put the rear end up on jack stands to check if the clutch is sticking and it is. The rear tires move with the clutch in. The tires can be stopped by hand so the clutch isnt sticking too much.

I am guessing that this problem can be solved with an adjustable master cylinder. Gonna do a search on how to make the it adjustable. If any of you guys have any advice it would be appreciated. Its a 2000 z28 if your curious.

Been following Jasons T/A's post and learned a some good info about the how if the driveshaft can cause problems if its in too far into the trans and how ride height can affect the distance. never would have thought of that.

I knew what I was getting into when buying a m6 instead of an a4 so I am not pissed about it. Hope the trans is ok. If not, then its time for the viper rebuild. <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" />

What kind of fluid are you running? if its old, or its synthetic that could be some of your problem. I would personally check that first. You should use dextron 3 atf (non-synthetic).

also what clutch are you running?
