  1. Hey guys, My R32 gts-t has a wierd problem with the clutch (5 puk - probably not related but). 1. The friction point will gradually keep lowering until it's on the floor or it's so far down that the clutch wont even engage and I'm stuck in gear. This will generally happen over a space of a week of driving. To combat this, I've had the clutch pedal adjusted 2-3 times already among other things and it keeps doing it. Can't really adjust it anymore because we've run out of thread on the adjustment. 2. The friction point of the clutch will also jump all over the place at any one time while the clutch is engaged (when it can be just engaged). For example, I will be rolling up to a set of lights and instead of shifting to neutral I will leave it in 5th or 3rd or whatever gear it's in and just have my foot on the clutch, then suddenly the clutch will let go and the car almost stalls coming up to the lights before it re-engages again and lets the car idle. Due to this sometimes I can't shift the car into any gears even when trying to take off as each press/pump of the clutch will give me a different friction point or none at all 3. When the friction point goes down the clutch pedal doesn't spring back to the top, it will only spring back half way. My mate has looked at a couple of things to fix this, we first thought it may have been an air leak because the master cylinder was leaking but that has since been reconditioned with new seals, and just of last week the slave was replaced. In all instances the system was bled. And if there is an air leak we aren't sure where it is because the fluid level isn't dropping at all. I should also note that the clutch is in it's best working condition on the first start of the day. The friction point is still as low as it was from the last day but it stays constant. After about 5 minutes, once the cars hot the symptoms will start to show and continue to get worse the more I drive it. Any ideas that will help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks all!
