Relationship? Not on the one that failed; or is the question not related to the failure of the throw-out bearing?

Seems like you just went into 5th instead of 3rd.

I'll try to make 1-2-3-4 gear tommorow.


Just a bad clutch to replace or? Oh and my slave cylinder is leaking too, I must change it. Dunno if it change something to the problem?
Didnt watch ur vid sorry, no time.. BUT if your pedal feels soft your first assignment should be to change the clutch fluid. It needs it quite a bit on turbo vehicles w/out heat shields. Secondly, (if and when that doesn't work (still do this step)) you need to replace your clutch, symptoms of a smoked clutch are releasing high. Keep in mind.... if you are on an oem clutch and you have any type of power.. that clutch is going to cook

sorry if that was too much
