i have a 95 firebird v6 with a 5 spd. I bleed the cltuch today and it still acts like it has air in it. When you displace the clutch pedal and try to shift into a gear the transmission grinds. if you pump the clutch then shift it there is no noise. my slave cylinder nor the master has a bleeder.
WHAT DO I DO?

 

i just got done going to the auto parts store to buy a master cylinder and a slave cylinder. i bleed all the air out. now i have no transmission at all. i can not get it to go in any gear. before atleast i could pump it up and get it to go into the gears. do you all believe i need a new clutch? I am just bumed out right now not knowing how much money i am going have to sink into this thing.
any help is welcomed guys
thanks

Did you replace the pressure plate or just the clutch disc?

i have not replaced the clutch yet......but the person i bought the car from said that he had a new clutch installed but he had to always double clutch it to go into gear. I thought he didnt bled it correctly so i bought the car thinking it only needed to be bleed. well i went ahead and replaced the master and slave cylinders just to make sure. I followed the instructions that came with them. I made sure i got all the air out.
BUT
the transmission still grinds when you depress the clutch and try to shift. I have no clue what to do or replace.

 

i called the auto parts store and they said the new clutch kit costs 160$$ but until i know for sure i need it i am not going to buy it.

Are you sure the clutch is disengaging all the way?
