Clutch very occasionally sticking halfway down

(1/4) > >>

GTIEagles:
On Monday morning I let my car defrost for 5-10 mins. I went to drive off and the clutch was stuck halfway down. I pulled it up with my foot and it was fine after that. The same thing happened today and it was fine again after I pulled it up. Any ideas?

Mine does that aswell. I had a new clutch fitted and it still does it. Audi said it was fine so god knows.

It is still fully in gear though so it doesn't affect it but its just annoying.

Good to see if anyone has a fix.

Sounds like your slave cylinder is on the way out. They're about £50. Needs bleeding afterwards.

Mine already had slave cylinder done when i done the clutch. The peddle feels fine most of the time and when it does stick a bit its far enough up that gear is fully engaged. Its a weird one it feels more like somthing to do with the peddle.

Thanks for the info, I suspected it might be the slave cylinder. I have heard it's a big job on a MK5 Golf? I think I will try and get the clutch bled first as my first port of call and pray it cures it! I can live with it if it only does it every now and then but if it happens more frequently it's gonna have to be fixed!
