I have been having a longstanding issue with my clutch pedal on my 86
syncro. Often, particularly in cold weather, it is pretty much
non-functional. Sometimes, often in hot weather, it works perfectly or
will work fine if you pump the brake pedal a couple of times.


Two different VW mechanics have attempted to bleed the hydraulic
system. The master and slave are both basically new. Fluid is
clean,new, and at the proper level. I am pretty much convinced that
it's air in the system but if bleeding it doesn't work what is the
next step?
