Clutch pedal sunk to floor

[Tim_B]

My clutch pedal has sunk to the fall - is this likely to mean new clutch or something to do with the lines to the clutch or master cylinder?  

My breakdown company wouldn\'t come and collect me either as car is over 15 yrs old - was livid :Grrr

I had this problem twice on two different Rx7\'s first check your fluid reservoir,

be aware that it is split up by plastic baffles making separate areas for brake

fluid, so u looking at the one closest to bulkhead. if that is empty then u have

a leak, if thats the case then follow line to behind intake elbow, look for an

insulated rubber pipe that is secured by a bracket to the bulkhead, this is the

clutch line down to the slave cylinder, check if this is leaking, if so u can get a

replacement very easily but would be better to get braided one.

WTF! Who are you with? Regardless of age they should collect...

I had this once, my flywheel wasnt dun up tight enough and the clutch fell off im sure its not this though and probably a problem with the cylinder or fluid.

HSBC Plus - its one of the benefits.  What was really annoying was I specifically checked if my 16yr old car would be covered and they said yes :2Confused  that said after I complained they have agreed to pay my towage fees and I\'m getting a free crate of wine :mmmm

I checked the reservoir but was dark at time and wasn\'t aware it was split in half - so will check more closely. Thanks
