[s-cars] Odd Clutch Behavior

[Steve Mills]

You are living on borrowed time- clutch slave is failing. BTDT in one of my S4's.  I foolishly ignored it when it happened to me, and it failed completely a week later. If it's original, you should replace the master while you're in there.

I get in the car and pull up on the clutch pedal with my toe and everything is back to normal.   Clutch functions exactly as would be expected from that point on, and still does, several days later.
