Hi,I looked at some of the solutions and all have good advice, the master- cylinder is the one in the engine-bay and the slave-cylinder is the one that attaches to the bell-housing on the front part of the gearbox that is attached to the engine,ever on the left or write hand side of the bell-housing,it looks like a cylinder with a tube on one end and a rubber sill on the other end where a rod gose into,the end with the tube is where you will find the nipple,you will now need something like a jam-jar a bleed-tube and the brake-fluid and some one to help with the bleeding, wright fist of all one of you needs to sit inside the car the othe one will open the filler-cap on the master-cylinder and as you are going to bleed the system fill it up to the top (dont spill eney on the paint-work) now go under neath the car, put the wright size spanner on the nipple then put one end of the tube on the nipple and the other in the jar,puaboout harf a inch of the brake-fluid in the jar so the bleed-tube is under neath the fluid, get your helper to press the clutch peddle then open the bleed nipple anti-clock wise,you should see the fluid coming out,your helper must keep the clutch to the floor untill you jently lock the bleed-nipple again,then tell your helper to let the peddle up as high as it can go,and press it down again and hold peddle to floor,and you open the beed-npple again when the fluid slows down lock the bleed-nipple again and get your helper to release the clutch-peddle again, keep repeating the preseger untill you see clean brake-fluid comeing out,dont forget to keepa eye on the fluid in the filler as if it gose down to far you might let air back in the system wich would mean doing it all over again,there is a level mark in the filler-well dont overfill. sorry I ment to say that some times sills inside the master or slave-cylinder can go so if after bleeding it dont feel better or after a time it starts to do same thing you will have to replace master or slave-cylinder,thay do kits but dont always work. hope this was some help,wish you luck,PH

Try bleeding the clutch and getting all the air out of the lines might work you'll need two people tho
Hi,I looked at some of the solutions and all have good advice,
the master- cylinder is the one in the engine-bay and the slave-cylinder is the one that attaches to the bell-housing on the front part of the gearbox that is attached to the engine,ever on the left or write hand side of the bell-housing,it looks like a cylinder with a tube on one end and a rubber sill on the other end where a rod gose into,the end with the tube is where you will find the nipple,you will now need something like a jam-jar a bleed-tube and the brake-fluid and some one to help with the bleeding,
wright fist of all one of you needs to sit inside the car the othe one will open the filler-cap on the master-cylinder and as you are going to bleed the system fill it up to the top (dont spill eney on the paint-work) now go under neath the car, put the wright size spanner on the nipple then put one end of the tube on the nipple and the other in the jar,puaboout harf a inch of the brake-fluid in the jar so the bleed-tube is under neath the fluid, get your helper to press the clutch peddle then open the bleed nipple anti-clock wise,you should see the fluid coming out,your helper must keep the clutch to the floor untill you jently lock the bleed-nipple again,then tell your helper to let the peddle up as high as it can go,and press it down again and hold peddle to floor,and you open the beed-npple again when the fluid slows down lock the bleed-nipple again and get your helper to release the clutch-peddle again, keep repeating the preseger untill you see clean brake-fluid comeing out,dont forget to keepa eye on the fluid in the filler as if it gose down to far you might let air back in the system wich would mean doing it all over again,there is a level mark in the filler-well dont overfill.
sorry I ment to say that some times sills inside the master or slave-cylinder can go so if after bleeding it dont feel better or after a time it starts to do same thing you will have to replace master or slave-cylinder,thay do kits but dont always work.
