Clutch problem?

Recommended Posts

as above, havent driven the car for just under 3wks, gave it a run into london Sat & found that when the engine gets hot the biteing point is so low the pedal gets stuck, give it a smack & its comes free.. i switched the engine off as I was waiting for a space & the car wouldnt re-start, so I ended up having to push it into a space..

 

I came back to the car a few hrs later & it started no probs..

 

Now my Ques is the clutch on its way out? is there any electrical problem too??

The rubber gaitor on my clutch slave cylinder got caught in the piston and gave similiar problems on a VR6. Luckily cx under warranty (several moons ago!)

Is that electrical problem the same as the one that nearly had you stranded at that petrol station just outside of Bath mate - like same kind of problem?
