[Vwdiesel] pedal bracket A2

[Erik Lane]

I just had a similar problem on an A1 and it ended up being one of the
clutch springs that had come out of its holder and was loose in there.
Sometimes it worked fine and sometimes it slipped like crazy. It was one of
the little shock absorber springs, not the clutch apply springs.
