definately try the fluid and master cylinder before secondary, had same issues and got my fluid changed and master replaced and it works perfect. About 200 bucks for parts and labor at a shop. Slaves are expensive to do cause you have to drop the engine so just do the clutch and slave at the same time

Just a quick question is it possible that.
Maybe the pressure plate is bad?

That is a possibility but you need to drop the tranny to check it. As stated previously, its probably best to bleed the system and upgrade the master before it starts eating your clutch away.
