Many of us have had clutch issues and most of them can be traced back to the fluid. changing the fluid is very easy and if you live in a hot climate it is eavin more of a problem. Follow this link, Ranger is the raining expert here on clutches and racing.:thumbs:

many thanks for the web bro ;)
very usefull info's :):thumbs: :bigears

Changing the clutch fluid is helpful (and worth a try) but unless you're just totally beating-up the car on the track I can't imagine 2 week old fluid would be the sole cause of this problem.

Obviously, something wasn't done or isn't being done correctly. If you experience the same failure after repeatedly replacing the pump, the source of the problem isn't being diagnosed correctly...don't blame the car.

where on the master cylinder does it leak from?

the pump get broke ! dunno how or why !
and my car now in the garage ,, and they are investigating this thing
because they said it is the 1st car with this problem
and the leak is from down ,, and my car is sleeping in the garage for 10 days now ,, and i think they will finish it in this few days and i will see what will happen and i will post the soloution in here :)

here we go guys
they told me because of my Clutch Set ! ( RAM POWERGRIP HD )
can that be the reason ?
and if any one of you guys know any person in the GM
cuz i really need to complain about them dealer in my country !
they are stealing my money !
now they want me to buy NEW CLUTCH SET
and they want me to pay for the actuator + the clutch pump + the hand work !
does that make since for a car under warrenty ?
they wanna charge for everythin !
if any person got a contact with GM dealer please priviate msg me with his link !
i really need to complain about what is happening !

cheers R:( R:leaving:

I had a similar thing happen once when the car was a few weeks old. I was sitting at a stop light...I don't recall all the exact details, but I when the light went green the pedal just flopped to the floor... no resistance at all - car was still running fine.

Took it to the shop the next day, said something about a defective slave - but who knows what these guys really know. Took a week to get the new part, and supposedly they had to install a 2nd one.

It's been fine ever since...that was about a year+ ago.

I haven't been doing any extraordinary upkeep on the clutch fluid, just swapping out the resevoir occasionally.

Nothing chronic like what's happening here. Sorry, no help, just a similar one-time event.

well i figured that better then changing my c6 clutch to ram or what ever brand ,,, is to change it to Zo6 clutch ,,, much better ,,,
LS7 clutch is fine ,,
now i am back to my old used clutch set ( c6 )
and the master cylinder is fine ! even after i added the supercharge and i tuned it in dyno ! which we have done around 10 runs ,,
i am waiting for my order LS7 clutch and i will install it

so good luck for all of us :!

Just to recap...

You swapped in an aftermarket clutch... and then started having a bunch of problems... is this correct?

If so, please don't blame the car or blame GM.

Glad everything is ok now :cheers:
