I don't know if my car was built in Florida and hates the cold weather or what but it starts acting strange when the temp drops below 50. The biggest issue is that the clutch pedal pretty much loses most or all resistance (I had this problem two years ago and replaced both the master and slave cylinder, last year it didn't happen because I was in BCT and AIT during the cold months). I don't see any obvious leakage and just for s**ts and giggles I recently replaced the slave cylinder again. The second, somewhat less annoying issue, is that when it's cold it take some "wriggling" to get my key to unlock the doors or hatch. If anyone has had any similiar problems please let me know how you resolved them. Thanks in advance.

 

i had the same problem with the keys in the door. I could never figure it out. I just kinda assumed it was freezing up. As far as the clutch issue. It definetly sounds like its an issue with the hydraulic system. What exactly it is, im not so sure. Did you replace the fluids at all?

 

Freezing up would make sense but the temp is not nearly low enough for that to be happening (with the keys). As to the clutch, I have replaced fluid and bled the system (which is a pain in the @$$ due to the location of the bleed valve) and still have the same problem.
