Ok, every day when I've been sitting at lights or in traffic with my foot on the clutch pedal, I go to let off the pedal and it bites immediately (no play at all) and the pedal only moves upwards about an inch. If I put my foot under the pedal and lift slightly then it springs back the remaining 3 inches it normally travels. When driving and changing normally it doesn't stick, and the biting point is about an inch from fully depressed, its only after having it depressed for a short while, whilst in gear.
If I don't have it in gear and depress it for a while then release it never sticks down. Any ideas? Is there any joints that I could lubricate that may free it off (inside the car or in the engine bay) |

I am sure that the problem lies with the clutch master or slave cylinder. The spring is fine, since it actually comes back up. The clutch master and slave cylinders are NOT expensive, and changing them is NOT hard. If you know how to screw and unscrew things, and pour fluid into things, then you're good to go. just do a seearch on clutch master cylinder to see how to install. good luck!!
