This may be one of those stupid questions. I might not even have a problem at all!
I don't do much in town driving but a few weeks ago I was in town waiting at a roundabout. I put my foot on the clutch and the pedal went almost to the floor before I felt normal resistance. My reaction was that I had a clutch cylinder failure. But for the drive home it behaved perfectly and since then I have wondered if I imagined it.
Then, I went to town again yesterday. Same thing, but this time it happened two or three times so I begin to think it is not my imagination. I have checked the fluid level and it is fine.
Normally, a reasonable pressure is required to depress the clutch pedal. This problem shows itself by the clutch pedal appearing much softer. There is no grinding of gears nor any gear change problem.
Is this senile decay in myself or the first symptoms of clutch cylinder failure in the D90? And, if the latter, which cylinder?
Thanks for your patience!
