Default notchy shifting

My clutch constantly varies on its engagement and disengagement which makes the car shift very notchy. Sometime the car shifts like butter while alot of the time very notchy. This happens in all gears. Does this sound like the clutch needs to be bleed?

good place to start, slave could be going too. But unlikely as you have a new model.

Got to fix the hydraulic issue. The hydraulics are the key to the feel & longevity of your T-56. You are putting undue wear on it driving it in it's current condition.
