Sticky Clutch
Hi,
I'm having issues with my clutch. The pedal feels slightly stiff and when I press it all the way down and release it, it sticks for a second and comes back slowly for the first little bit, then pops back up normally.
I got the master and slave cylinder replaced at the dealer. I also had it bleed a second time after the replacement and they replaced the clutch bracket also even though it wasn't cracked
If I hold down the clutch for 30 seconds, and then use the clutch normally all the stiffness is gone and the sticky problem are gone for about a minute or so and then it returns.
The dealer now wants to replace the clutch, but I don't think that's the issue? Shifting gears is fine and there is no slippage.
I'm not aware of the all the clutch workings, but is there something else to check?

hard to tell without year, but given you joined in 05, I would suspect the release bearing. You have to pull the transmission to get to it. When it goes, you stop.
While the transmission is out, may I suggest a light flywheel? That is a great mod. I would NOT upgrade from an OEM style clutch.
I would also suggest that you may be on borrowed time.
