Customer Complaint

Loss of clutch hydraulic pressure once the vehicle reaches operating temperature, causing difficulty selecting gears. When the vehicle cools down, clutch operation returns to normal.

Problem Summary

The clutch operates correctly when cold, but after the vehicle warms up, the clutch pedal loses pressure and gear engagement becomes impossible. Upon cooling, the clutch regains normal function. This intermittent loss of pressure suggested a hydraulic issue rather than a mechanical clutch fault.
