I have noticed that when I take a corner hard, my clutch is much more difficult to press in. When going straight or on a slow or easy turn the clutch has the "normal" feel. Does this mean my clutch is going? Transmission fluid low? If the latter, how do I check and add?
Thanks in advance,
Eric

All I can add is that the clutch slave and the steering are assisted by hydraulic pressure from the same pump. What shape is the accumulator in? For how long after shutting off the engine do you still have the assist?

I knew my accumulator was going when my clutch became difficult to depress before starting the car. As Phelix said, that test will give you an idea if your accumulator is still fully functioning.

Do a search for "accumulator" and you'll find plenty of info.

Thanks guys!! I'll do the test tonight and use the search.
