I know a desent amount about clutches and clutch problems. I have NEVER ran into this problem before.

Yes, I know how to properly bleed my clutch system. *Yes, everything was fine with the car before hand *

Story time.I took out my transmission yesterday and inspected the clutch and replaced my throw out bearing. Re-installed everything back to torque specs. When I inspected my clutch...it was looking in GREAT shape almost as if I just put it in. I inspected the presure plate, once again all good. Same goes for the flywheel.

So I go ahead and install the throw out bearing. I pull out of the shop and drive it around the shop. I notice that it is not grabing at all. Almost seems as if the clutch is out (but I know its not). I cant push on the gas more than like | | that much, or it will slip. Also it grabs different.

When I first pulled it in, it was grabing fine, shifted fine, everything. It just needed a new throw out bearing....

Any Ideas is more than I have. Only thing I can think it can be is that the throw out bearing is not releasing..

Just throwing it out there but could you have installed the clutch backwards? It happens to the best of us.

Happens to the best of us? By this I am assuming you mean you did it. Haha. Thats just funny. I was talking with somebody about this a while ago, cracks me up. Just look at the disk, it's pretty self-explanatory.
