What is your question?
I just replaced the cluch in my 2013 kia soul 6 speed. When its first cranked it will go into gear fine and change gears. After driving it for less than 30 min, I will like stop at a red light or stop sign and put it in neutral, when the light changes or I try to start to go I press in the cluch, put it in first and it won't go anywhere. Then I can turn the car off for a while and it will go into gear for only for a few minutes and then its like its not in gear anymore.
How long has your 2013 Kia Soul had this problem?
More than a year

Hello, I’m Pete from the Car Genius team at RepairPal. I’m sorry you’re dealing with this concern on your Kia Soul. Based on the information provided with how your vehicle is acting up, this can point to a fault with the clutch disc itself, a possible fault within the gearbox/transmission, or in some cases a fault with the pressure plate for the clutch among other possible causes. Without seeing the vehicle myself this can make it difficult to say for sure from here which component is creating this issue. If this concern only occurred after the clutch components were replaced I would suspect it is more likely to be tied to the clutch system. I recommend having the clutch as well as gearbox/transmission itself inspected to pinpoint which component is creating this concern so it can then be repaired properly from there.
