    I have an 09 volvo i believe it has a hydraulic clutch. So here is my problem when in neutral i press the clutch and cant get it in gear. The transmission is still moving doesnt stop. I pump the peddle couple times and nothing. So i shut the truck off start in gear and its good. Later it happend again now its not . Also onces i was rolling good i stop at a light i put it in first it goes in waiting for the light to go green and it was like i let go of the clutch by my foot was in had to press brakes harder.

    The first part of the OP description sounds like clutch brake, not sure about the rest. Maybe both? May as well replace both if he drops the tranny.

    CK. the slave cil. at trans. may not be pushing far. You can replace the clutch brake very easy with/out pulling the trans. Find a truck trans. shop and ask for the 2 part replacement clutch brake, they cut the old C/Brake out with air and slip new 2 part one back in an ready to go haul.
