Like they said, start with bleeding it again, see if that helps. I was also wondering if you replaced the slave and master. If bleeding doesnt help, it might be time to replace your slave with the updated 01 and up.

Mine was hard to engauge. It wast the throwout bearing and the pressure plate. Might want to check the bearing. Those are the exact symtoms of mine. Hard to engauge, makes noise, and you can feel it in the stick sometimes. I get mine back today. I went ahead and had them put in a ls7 clutch kit aswell

Price was $615 . This does not include the price of the Ls7 clutch. It does cover the price of the throw out and hydralics they had to replace. I just got to drive it a few miles but the shifting much smoother now night and day. Just take yours to tran shop and they will tell you what is wrong, I do not think there is anything wrong with your clutch just the throwout bearing. The whole job took the shop just one day.
