Clutch Pedal sometimes feels notchy?
My Turbo just had the Slave Cylinder and accumulator replaced.Upon getting it back,sometimes the Clutch Pedal has a Notchy place about half way to the floor.I mostly notice it when I push the clutch in when coming up to a Stop Light.
Do you think it is a defective Slave or maybe the Pedal needs to be lubed?Could it need to be rebleed?It is at the Dealer now,but I am thinking they are going to tell me that nothings wrong,since it only does it sometimes.Any thoughts?
Thanks

It can be a rusted input shaft, causing the clutch to hang up as it slides along. The clutch was assembled dry from the factory, but if it's been replaced a lube can rust the shaft.

Wanted to add - it's possible the dead slave was leaking Pentosin into the clutch - that might cause rusting.
It is also worth noting that this is probably the worst case scenario, and it could be the pedal or slave.
