Hi all -
My 02 Elantra GT has around 75000 miles on it, and since June I have been driving around 400 miles a week to my new job (80 miles round-trip, mostly 2-lane highway). Stock except for K&N air filter, all maintenance up-to-date (water pump, timing belt changed per specs, new tires and battery 2 weeks ago).
Lately, I've noticed a bit more difficulty shifting into various gears, and I have also noticed what some would call 'stiction' in the clutch pedal (kind of a resistance like you would get on the head shocks of a motorcycle or mountain bike suspension fork with pneumatic tubes). Nothing too alarming, and certainly no issues shifting that would cause me to suspect a transmission problem, but I would like the community's opinion on the sticky clutch. Something to worry about?
Thanks -
MM
