Default Sticky Clutch

My clutch just two days ago started sticking for just a quick second when I let up off of it. My car doesn't feel any different and I don't slip out of gear or anything. It just started sticking. It does it only when I push the clutch all the way to the floor. Has this happened to anyone? If so, what the hell is going on? Please, someone tell me something!

On a six year old car, could be slave or master cylinder. My bet is the salve cylinder.

It needs to be greased at two points:

Where the ball end of the slave sits in the fork.

Where the tips of the fork contact the TO bearing. You'll need a small paint brush and a very good eye to get this right.

It will be mint...trust me

Any wheel bearing grease that is thick like peanut butter will work well
