Clutch cylinder replaced, hanging pedal solved!
This morning I picked up my car at Lammertink [www.lammertink-porsche.nl ] after the job on the clutch slave cylinder was done. They replaced the cylinder and the connecting hose. Also they replaced the steel line which is connected to the hose. 
I broke the connection because it was soooo damnn tight. I did not had the time to fix this my self the firs coming weeks, so I had to invest some money by let doing others fixing the job. The hose was broke, there was a crack in there, so under hot conditions a "hill" showed up each time you used the clutch..... so rush to replace was required.
The invoice................ 475 Euro's (570 Us $] for the line, connector, slave cylinder, 5.75 Hours work and tax. Not that bad.
The problem of the "hanging pedal" is gone now, I tested it this morning. The clutch still is heavy, but it's the first one and it doesn't slip under load, so it will hold for a while I guess.....................
