Friend, you have a hydraulic clutch. Nothing to do with transmission oil. Use brake fluid and fill the empty container by removing the cap from the empty container. Fill the container and start pumping the clutch pedal, or go to the clutch slave cylinder on the transmission and open the bleeder at the slave cylinder top while someone pushes the clutch pedal down, close the bleeder then let off the clutch. Do this a few times and the clutch will begin to work. At times it will take a while before the clutch comes all the way back up, but eventually it will. Now, there has to be a reason the clutch master cylinder was empty. A possible leak. Check to see if any fluid loss while in use. You may need to replace the slave cylinder. I've been through this and it's fairly easy to do.
Angela, I'll be honest I'm confused. It shows "problem with Toytoa Celica" but you mention a Ford Mondeo in your post. Just to be sure we're talking about a Ford Mondeo that had the flywheel replaced, correct? Chances are if they replaced the flywheel you normally would always replace the clutch disk with it. If this is a hydraulic clutch system you don't typically have to open the hydraulic system to swap out the flywheel and clutch on a car. This would lead me to believe clutch fluid isn't your answer, but I would at least make sure you check it. If they DID have to open the system the clutch needs to have the air bled out of the hydraulic lines.
no, the hydraulics is not the issue, its time to replace the clutch. there is no quick fix or easy patch job, replace the clutch (hydraulics dont affect how the clutch holds, they mearly either disengage the clutch or do nothing)
The clutch hydraulic system is very small. Check the resevoir is full. If empty fill. Try clutch. Still problem ? Bleed the clutch slave cylinder at the trans bleeder. You dont bleed this clutch like brakes pumping up several times. Have someone push clutch to the floor and hold it there, then you open and close bleeder while keeping pedal to the floor. Check the fluid level every time you open/close the bleeder as this system is so small and will empty quick.
look for a tube that extends down towards the transmission, there might also be a fitting down close to the clutch assembly like on a hydraulic clutch motorcycle, it'll look like a grease fitting, careful not to let air into the system
It is probably a hydraulic clutch. Check the fluid. From your description, I am understanding that the pedal feels normal but you are unable to put the car in gear when you push the pedal down. You probably have a leaky slave cylinder on the transmission, but it is possible to have a leaky master cylinder (on the firewall, aligned with the clutch pedal). Check your fluid, if it's empty fill it and bleed the system. You probably have a really big air bubble in your clutches hydraulic system. Usually you can get away with not replacing the leaking part for a bit, just keep an eye on your fluid, and save your pennies! Good luck!!!
check under your hood for a another cap looks similar to a brake fluid resouvior see if its empty.if it is you probably blown the seal on your slave cylinder its what throws your clutch out.
You need to fix the Leak in your hydraulic system to your clutch on your transmission. The reason that your transmission is not going in to gear right is that the fluid is to low to push the throw out bearing to disengage the clutch fully.
Once the fluid get's too low, you'll not be able to disengage the clutch to put it in to gear or change gear.
Check the fluid level to your hydraulic clutch reservoir and fill to the right level and fix the leak in the hydraulic lines.
Good luck and hope this helps. Keep me posted, glad to help.
This is probably a hydraulic clutch. check for fluid at the clutch master cylinder, if empty check for a leak at either master or slave cylinder (on the side of the transmission) if fluid is present in the reservoir try loosing the fitting on the slave and have an assistant pump the pedal while adding fluid ( this is called "bleeding", just like with a brake system). don't allow the master cyl. reservoir to run dry. Hope this helps
