I know someone who has a brand-spankin-new clutch master cylinder & kinematic lever straight from Porsche. For the right price, he may be willing to part with these two items.

I'm sure I will become a believer when I get in there but it's just hard for me to believe the splines are rusty in this climate on a garage kept car. Wishful thinking on my part. Although it needs to be fixed, whatever the cause.

I have been experiencing this exact problem. I just had the transmission fluid changed but it still exists. Has anyone come to a resolution? Is a new clutch required?
As always, thanks for the input.

Same problem on my end too. Transmission flush does nothing. Maybe bleeding the clutch fluid will help but haven't tried it yet.

This is common and is more than likely a rusty or sticky input shaft spline. The issue isnt the fact that the PP is released, its that the disc must slide a small amount on the input shaft splines to release. If it resists to do so, the disk still hangs at the flywheel friction surface providing just enough drag to keep the syncro ring locked or preloaded.
Does your car want to lurch forward a small amount if you go to start it in gear, clutch pedal on the floor?

I had my trans removed, input shaft cleaned and regreased with specific grease, and while it’s all out all parts replaced. New clutch, DMF, clutch slave, master, fork, bearings etc. I could have cheaper out and just had the shaft cleaned and regreased but I am keeping the car long term so just replaced everything. Would have regeared if I had the $$$$ but did not.

So at this point to we have any idea what the specific fix is for the "gets stuck in gear" problem? Is it related to the clutch itself, the slave, or would a SSK fix the issue (maybe related to the trans rod bushing)?
