Dearest members, I am at my wit's end with my car and thus I'm asking for help.
Vehicle
2005 LGT Wagon 5sp
Problem:
Clutch won't disengage fully
Background:
When leaving the house, the car was impossible to get out of first gear into second. I pulled over, turned the car off and could go into all gears with engine not spinning. Went to start the car in 1st and the car lunged..
Reading about "side-stepping" the clutch, that seemed to "jog" whatever into place and allowed me to drive for a few more weeks. However, under boost I noticed the clutch started slipping
Replacement
Tore the transmission out and saw that the Clutch Masters FX300 was completely gone and it took my OEM WRX SMFW with it. TSK3 throw-out bearing looked fine.
Ordered Exedy TYF001 Flywheel and Competition Stage 2 15021-2100 kit to replace. Everything installed fine but the new clutch would still not disengage.
Ordered and installed Exedy CMC and bled the system. Still won't disengage.
Ordered and installed new clutch fork after reading about the failures. Still won't disengage.
I have ordered a new clutch slave cylinder as I think this is the only thing that hasn't been replaced yet but I'm worried it won't fix it for some reason.
Can anyone help me by measuring their clutch fork / slave cylinder piston travel? I feel like mine is not going as far as it needs to. I don't see anything in the service manual about this distance.
-Regards
Dan
