hey guys,

I have the wierd thing going on with the clutch pedal at the mo, after a motorway journey could be short or long doesn't matter, when i come to the ramp after motrway, and go to push the clutch down it feels like it only has half the travel and is slack, once i put it to the floor, and it comes back, feels like it takes the strain back up and tightens.

I put a new uprated clutch in her about 15K miles ago, and has been fine since.

I was thinking maybe ratchet, but what would i be doing on a motorway apart from letting her rev through further as i'm accelerating on and into far side etc to make this happen, compared to normal driving, or could it be that i'm not changing gear obviously cause i'm on the motorway in 5th that has something to do with it??

Any help would be much appreciated
