| Description of the problem | 2004 nissan altima 5 spd manual clutch. Last wednesday i was driving my car and noticed the clutch was getting lower and lower to the floor. I made it to my destination but when i returned to my car to leave, i pressed on the clutch and it just stay down on the floor. After the car cool it seemed to work properly the next day but now it is hard to go into 1st gear and there is a grinding noise to go into 2nd all other gears seem okay. Currently i have only searched online to see if anyone else was having this problem and there appears to be many. I do not have thousands of dollars for a mechanic bill, actually today i only have 15. 00 to my name. This is my only means to get to my job that pays half my bills and at this time i don't know what to do. |
