RE: Could it be my clutch??

Sounds like a master cylinder leak, with fluid blowing by the piston. You
won't necessarily get external leakage as the fluid stays within the
cylinder.

Subject: Could it be my clutch??

Greetings all!!

Okay here's the deal.  My car is a 95 325i with 129k.  Lately I've been
having problems with my clutch.  It's the original clutch.  I'm not too sure
if it's the clutch or the cylinder for the pedal.  Here's what happens.
Sometimes the clutch gets very "soft" and the engagement point drops.  I had
to remove my clutch stop because of this.  Sometimes it's a little too
"springy" and it feels like it's gonna pop.  The engagement point picks up
again.  There's no fluid leakage near the clutch pedal and the fluid
reservoir is full.  There are no symptoms before it happens it just does it
whenever it wants too.  The clutch pedal doesn't sag and returns all the way
up.  What the heck could be the problem?? Could my clutch be taking a dump
on me soon??  Any help or insight would be appreciated.  TIA!!!
