 Topic: E34 530 - clutch kaput?Posted: 12-April-2008 at 16:27 |

Went to drive my touring for the first time in about a month. As soon as I put pressure on clutch pedal it shot to the floor and had to put my foot underneath to get it back up. There were no signs it was going to give up last time I drove it - am I looking at a big (and costly) repair??? |

If you pump it, does it come back up? if the answer is yes, you may possibly need a fluid bleed/change as there could be air in the system. If the pedal keeps going to the floor, check for fluid leaks at the clutch master and slave cylinders and along the pipework too. HTH Mike |

Thanks Mike, pedal pops to the floor like something has snapped so I'll get the line and cylinders checked.
