Default Still Having Slight Problems.

I have had trouble even trying to diagnose whats wrong with my clutch its sooo wierd.

If you've seen before, when the car is left to sit for a while in idle or even when I'm driving on the highway while keeping it in a single gear for a long time. The clutch seems to almost go loose.

What I did first was add more DOT3 fluid which it appeared low in this may have started the problem don't know.

I had my mechanic bleed out the car because he found alot of air in the hydro. lines.

At first when I picked it up it was fine, and as I drive more and more while working the clutch it gets better with more torque once I engage it.

But then again when its left to sit for a while or I am driving and keeping it in the same gear while going long distances it seems to get looser.

I don't know if anyone has experienced this but its definitely not the clutch components or the transmission so don't suggest that its something else, possibly the master cylinder? Or something else that pumps the DOT3 through the clutch and once its not being used it sucks in more air?

yea, it could be an internal leak with the MC. Have you checked to see if you have any fluid inside the car down near the clutch pedal?
