Replaced my clutch with RS LWF, new slave, line, the whole kit - all within 7,500 miles.

Worked perfectly, butter smooth.

Recently a notchy pedal has returned - you can literally hear a spring-like sound when depressing it. Defective slave?

I will bleed again and see if it improves, but disappointed to have this issue so soon with nearly new parts.

Any other thoughts on how to trouble-shoot?

Best,

Matt

 

Do you hear the spring sound from underneath the car or down by your pedals?

 

Clutch release bearing?
Clutch disc splines not properly greased?

It might be your clutch pedal 'kinematic' lever within the pedal box. It's been updated to a -03 part and has a greenish coating to distinguish it as the newer part.
Failure mode is when it hangs up on the return or release. Jackals forge (website) has a nice pictorial on a DIY replacement.

 

You didn't mention if you replaced your master cylinder as part of the whole kit. I found this thread to be useful. It also mentions the updated lever but I thought that was more of a hanging pedal solution than notchiness. Also do you plan to bleed with the power bleeder wet? Otherwise the clutch system sucks air quickly, right? Seems to get a good flush it would be easier to just use the motive bleeder wet on this one but would be interested to hear other opinions.
