Default Clutch pedal sticking

Hey guys really need help in this issue because its driving me mad....
I have an issue with the clutch pedal sticking when releasing but only if I've been using it alot ( Stuck in traffic )
Clutch and flywheel has been changed not to long ago by previous owner and the car seems to have been well cared for

any suggestions would be helpful

Mastercylinder, check.below the cluch there is a part that the pedal attaches to, this may well be leaking black grease or have alot of play in it. Replace. Its also worth greasing the large clutch fork, slave cyclinder and the selector parts below the shifter.

Hi and welcome along, there are quite a few posts on clutches, but I'd focus on
  • changing the fluid
  • de-nipple the slave rod and re-grease the ball

If you do a search you can find a lot of info on both, keywords: "clutch" and "nipple"

I've greased the ball but still sticking.
i have noticed the clutch fluid is filthy so i'm hoping if i change the fluid on the weekend that it may make a difference


there is a little bit of grease showing on the rod that attaches to the pedal, i wont to try doing the cheapest options first so i'l let you know how i get off with the fluid change

Thanks for the help
