Stiff Clutch

***msjwild3*** · 02-20-2008, 02:59 AM

I parked my Si in the heated shop at work today to keep it out of the cold. It's like -40 C here right now.

Anyways, after work I pulled it out of the shop and headed down the highway home. All was good and then after a few miles I had to turn so i pushed the clutch in to take it out of gear and the clutch seemed really stiff, alot stiffer then normal. I don't know whats wrong, it just feels weird. I don't ride the clutch at all or drop the clutch and spin out or anything. It could just be from the car going from a hot shop to the really cold temps. I'll see tommorow when I go to work if it is still like this. Anyone have any suggestions to what it might be? Thanks.
