    Default clutch problem

    I just have a small problem with my clutch ... it doesn't release the clutch after some time driving ... as if it lost oil pressure off the slave cylinder. any advice?

    Default System Compliance

    Hi,

    Compliance in the system can come from three places - leaky master cylinder, leaky slave cylinder or a leak in the system. A flex hose that expands like a balloon can also cause high compliance.

    I would begin by checking for brake fluid leaks. For good measure, bleed the system and change the fluid as there may be air/debris in the system. If there are no leaks, the cylinders are suspect. Probably best to replace both.

    Regards,
    Adnan
