Honda Accord 1999 Clutch Problems
 

Hi

I am having some intermittent problems with my clutch. Normally the
bite of the clutch is failry high in terms of the pedal travel.
However, on the odd occassion, after depressing the clutch, the bite
will be really low which causes the car to try an pull away to early.

The clutch also sometimes to feel sticky when being released, after
being depressed, although the bite is normal.

The car has been recently service with no apparent problems to the
clutch.

Sounds like it could be the early stage of a clutch master cylinder
failure. Maybe a little bit of bypass at the piston packing that is
intermittant or is sealing up with temperature changes. Look for
signs of leakage on the firewall at the back of the clutch master
cylinder.
