Default Clutch pedal gets stuck

I got a v1, anytime I get on the pedal hard or burnout the clutch pedal never comes back up. Anyone might kno the cause or a fix to this.

Broken clutch pedal spring, low clutch fluid level, air in clutch hydraulics, bad clutch master cylinder, bad slave cylinder, bad throwout bearing... I'd start with the fluid and bleeding.

Common occurrence, search the forum.

Bottom line, (cant remember which spring) can't overcome the centrifugal(?) force.

I got on it hard once & pedal did that, but because I had read about it before it happened, I wasn't worried.

There is a TSB on a pressure plate issue. I actually had that issue when I first got my car and had the entire clutch assembly replaced under warranty because of the TSB.
