Cascadia clutch

yes that could be the reason but it's better to replace the cylinders all together

 

Unless you want it to fail again, it's better to replace them both with new ones.

Spend a little bit of money now, or more money later.

 

Since they use a hydraulic master/slave on a cascadia, I would replace both. If the seal is bad on one end, the other isn't long for this world. I think the slave cylinder is external, so it's just a matter of remove and replace and maybe bleed it.

 

It's not the cylinder. A spring or something jumped off or something 100% the clutch is done either the disk or something but the clutch is done! If it was the hydrolics then you wouldn't be able to press the clutch. Your clutch is done 100% I just changed mine had a similar problem

 

+1.
clutch is done.

 

the springs will break or fall out of the solo's and cause the clutch pedal when depressed to drop to the floor.

When that happens you also need to make sure the slave cylinder hasn't pushed fluid behind itself, and is functioning correctly. What I mean by this is when the clutch fails, it can cause fluid to be on the wrong side of the slave and it has to be taken apart up top, then bled out correctly. I had a truck that had a failed clutch do this on me, and it sent me into a tailspin thinking I had a disc in backwards. Turns out unbolt the slave from the firewall, fluid on the wrong side of the cylinder, clear that all out, bleed the system, clutch works perfectly. This is after removing the transmission a second time to check the clutch discs. How fun.

 

I have a 2011 cascadia with a hydraulic clutch about half way down pedal gets extremely hard to push pedal won't return after it is depressed any ideas

 

Just put in a brand new clutch & master cylinder & slave cylinder on a 2012 freightliner cascadia... now my clutch pedal feels funny is that normal? I press 3inch down before the clutch engage. I have a self adjusting clutch as well. Is there anything I can do to add more resistance to the clutch pedal or it will do it on its own as I drive?
