Zhlow Neutral Newbie June 4, 2017 Share June 4, 2017 Hi all, I bought a second hand Kia Cerato V2 manual transmission about a year ago. Generally very satisfied with the car however whenever the car is stucked in a heavy jam under hot sun, i tend to experience the clutch pedal to be gradually harder and harder to be depressed ( to a point it feels like racing clutch). However after i cleared the jam and travelled for about 15mins the clutch feel will be back to normal. Wondering if any other bros experienced such issues before. My previous kelisa and vios manual transmission did not experience such issues before. Looking forward to kind inputs and suggestions. Cheers. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fedex67 Neutral Newbie June 15, 2017 Share June 15, 2017 manual transmission fluid change? Hi all, I am taking over a KIA cerato and has this issue too. Very hard to enagage the manual gear and it just died while in the jam. And when we were waiting for the tow truck to arrive, it gets started and we were able to drive again. Was told by mechanic that there are 2 pump that impact the clutch engaging. Lower and Upper. Not sure what he is really saying. So I am waiting for some sharing here.

QQDreamer 4th Gear February 11, 2019 Share February 11, 2019 why not go stockist like song yi to buy the clutch set which consist main 3 parts, clutch pressure plate, clutch bearing and also the clutch disc? or if you want can also replace the clutch fork also. after all these changes will be good again. if you kiasu, can change the clutch master and slave pump together also to solve this once and for all.
