The clutch on my Brava was failing to disengage intermittently and stiff in operation.
I replaced the slave cylinder which has cured the failure to disengage. The stiffness remains, however, and not in a good way.
It tends to be worse if the car has not been driven for a few days, as if a moving part is sticking/in need of lubrication and freeing up. It seems to be most noticeable if the engine is off, although I don't think there is servo assistance.
Any ideas?
Vehicle is W reg 2000, 1.25 engine about 80,000 miles.
