07 997 Turbo clutch pedal

swivel

New member
Evening all,
I had such a helpful response earlier in the year regarding a low reading on the tyre pressure monitors of my car I wondered if there was any wisdom regarding my latest issue.
I went to play squash this evening and the clutch pedal was 'different'. It would return from being depressed fully to select a gear, but only half way whereupon it then needed a nudge from the top of my foot under the pedal to come fully up. The clutch seemed to hold normally, (no slippingthat I could detect), but each time I used it it needed lifting to return to the fully up position. There appeared to be no slipping at the half way point if I didn't lift it up. After 20 miles it was normal but 2 hours later on my return journey it was back to not returning fully without help and this time the gear selection seemed notchy on a couple of occasions and I lost drive for a few seconds on one change of gear. It seemed to work better with 'overdepression' into the carpet but did not return to normal function by the end of my return journey, as it had on the outward leg. Any advice or suggestions would be most welcome. It sort of felt as if a return spring was broken or a plunger was slow to return.....
 
My son and I have had this on several of the front engined Porsches, each time it was the slave cylinder which was the cause and it would blow out past it's seal to then work ok when topped up.

Each time we both installed new slave cylinders and everything was fine in fact it happened twice on a 924S once when I owned it and once when he did the car had stood for almost a year before he took it on so whether that was relevant or not I'm unsure.
