2001 SS bad clutch?????
Hopped into the SS yesterday morning and went to drive off. For the first couple of times I used the clutch going from parked into 4th gear the pedal stayed close to the floor. For the next 20 minutes it drove just fine as I went to work.
On the way home it drove fine again. I made a stop for some groceries then hopped in to drive the last 5 minutes home. The clutch pedal was all the way down to the floor and the clutch wasn't fully disengaged. I could feel it grabbing just slightly. Managed a couple of hard shifts but once I was into 5th and moving the pedal returned to its normal position and the car drove fine.
So is my clutch going out or is it something else? The car has a little over 30k and the clutch is the original one. Most of the driving has been on the street with maybe a dozen visits to the drag strip and a couple of autocrosses.
Any ideas?
