On the way to work this morning my clutch went all weird. Play in the peddle was down to the half way point with no resistance at all - towards the end of the day the pedal was stuck to the floor and all i needed to do to clutch was tap the pedal!.

Got home and checked the clutch resevoir and it was bone dry - i filled it up and primed with the pump on top of the resevoir - clutch is back to how it was this morning - with play down to half way.

Any suggestions what to do next - do I need to bleed the system - if so how or does the pedal need adjusting

All help would be appreciated

Cheers Guys :banghead: :crybaby: :notworthy

Yes it is greasy - there is a huge stain on the carpet when I bought it - was aware of this - is there a repair kit or is it a new cylinder - if so how much to repair/replace - is it an easy diy job or pro ?
