Hello, my name is foxx. I just purchased a 2015 FiST with 75k miles from the Ford dealership I work at as a diesel tech. Upon 8 days of purchase, I was driving to work down the interstate, at about 80 in 6th gear. I merged to my exit, depressed the clutch and it went straight to the floor. I pulled it up with my foot after engaging into neutral and rolling on the on ramp. I pulled over and inspected the clutch pedal assembly, under the vehicle around the bell housing, and the brake fluid reservoir. It looked okay, somewhat dark but not significant. I read a thread in this forum regarding the issue after researching it at work, no TSB's for this issue at work under PTS, but most people on here said it was super intermittent. I waited a week, and it still would have the same issue on the interstate and light traffic. Since the problem started it'll sometimes refuse to take a gear from neutral, and 2nd has grinded twice. I've lubricated the clutch pivot point, to no avail. My next step is flushing the fluid, which has gotten darker. I have suspicions that the clutch slave cylinder is going out and plan to replace it with a new clutch but I wanted a second opinion before dropping the trans. They did a transmission fluid change prior to me purchasing the vehicle so I'm somewhat concerned about that, I doubt that's the issue though. (Carfax indication). I'm new to the ford game (I'm a Subaru guy, I've owned 8 and have torn down countless EJ's and FA's and done all sorts of work on Subaru transmissions). Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you!
