CDV (clutch delay valve) and Clutch Pedal
My clutch pedal is a bit "sticky" on my new car.
When I turn the car off, step on the clutch pedal, and "pop" the clutch, the pedal feels like it's a bit sticky and doesn't come up right away. The lag is small, but it's still noticeable.
Does this have anything to do with the CDV? I flushed the clutch fluid, and that doesn't seem to help.
I removed the CDV so early in my previous car, so I can't tell whether the stickiness was due to CDV or not. The clutch pedal on my previous would come up right away when I pop it with the car off.
Thanks

Doesn't sounds CDV related to me. Perhaps it'd be worthwhile to grease where the piston on the slave cylinder contacts the release fork. (Unbolt the slave cylinder from the transmission (two bolts only, don't mess with the hydraulic line) and reapply grease to the hemispherical end of the piston that's hidden by the rubber boot on the transmission.)
