Spongy clutch pedal

[felsmann]

I am getting a spongy pedal feeling on my 5 spd. By that I meand that the pedal is sloppy or soft some times up to half way down. Some times if I slap it rapidly with my foot it hardens up, and operates normally for a couple of minutes.

I took out the whole maser, bench bled it, and it run great for about a week, before it started doing the same.

Has any one experienced this?

Should I just replace the master?

Thanks!

That'a normal clutch wear dude. Not saying you need a new clutch, but over time, the clutch self adjusts with wear. Making it feel different over time from when it was new.

You are right, over time; however in my case all parts are new.

Thanks

It's a 97 with a new clutch???? What's new?

Clutch disc, pressure plate, bearings, slave, and even the master.

Anyway, I changed it myself today. It feels great now, but I have to wait at least a week to see if the problem presents itself again.

Thanks,
