I've had this problem too. Another symptom is that the clutch doesn't quite go to the floor when I step on it to start the car, then immediately moves a little further when the engine starts. I'm having the clutch accumulator replaced next Thursday. My shop guy says that his price on the part is $96. I'm guessing less than one hour for labor. I'll ask, 'cause I'm having some other stuff done at the same time.

TonyTurbo is infamous around these parts
To do just the accumulator is a lot longer than one hour or I would like to know how its done in one hour. The part is about $100., labor between 350.00 to 750.00 depending who does it.

Tony -

You were right. Replacing the accumulator is easy. Getting to the accumulator is not easy. They have to drop the rear subframe. Mine was 3.5 hours @ $60. So the job, with part, was about $310.

On the plus side, the clutch feels a lot smoother and takes a lot less effort to depress to start the car.
