On Monday after returning from a 600 mile trip, the Defender had some issues getting into 1st and reverse. I assumed it was my master and slave finally needing a replacement. The master had a slow leak in the winter, that would stop in the summer. I would top it off here and there and have no issues with shifting in gears at all.
This just came on, the gear issues, suddenly, and the reservoir was completely topped off at the time.
I replaced both slave and master. Did the reverse bleed method, and could not for the life of me get the clutch back to normal. Once or twice it felt close. I started the truck and went to push clutch and nothing. The car will slightly move forward if you push it towards first. I did not force it, but it was the same for reverse. Slight push in the direction with clutch engaged and it would move backwards but not go into gear.
Is it possible I am not bleeding it enough? Or is this something like a clutch plate?
Any help would be great.
