clutch issue

Post by si import » Mon Jul 01, 2013 7:02 am

If I hold my foot on the clutch pedal for any lengh off time the biting point moves and the car trys to move off before it usually would.
im thinking maybe its the clutch master cylinder leaking past the rubbers inside . It has no leaks and I dont think its the clutch itself but does anyone else have any ideas .
cheers jon

Probably not the master cylinder but the slave cylinder on the front of the gearbox, I've had a couple leaking and caused same issues. It's easy enough to take off and check for fluid inside the rubber.
