Hi - sorry that this is a bit long.

I bought this car three weeks ago. After one day I lost all pressure on the clutch and could not get it into gear. RAC got it working again (they didn't apparently do anything to the car - I was at work so didn't speak to them). RAC bloke recommended flushing the clutch, so I booked that in at the dealer's garage at their cost.

The car drove for a few days but clutch started to stick again. I got the clutch flushed but after another week the problem came back. I managed to drive to the garage in 3rd gear. They replaced the slave cylinder on the warranty.

After 24 hours and 2 journeys the problem came back. I phoned the garage and it's going back tomorrow. They say it can only be the master cylinder, but....

This time I could hardly get the car into gear even with the engine off as the clutch wasn't engaging properly and he car would stall. The peddle went half way down to the floor so I pulled it back up. Roughly after that the car now drives okay again, however, when ticking over there is a slight 'knock' noise every now and then and then the revs go up a little, only to go down again a few seconds later.

Any idea how the problem can go away and can the revs thing be connected at all?
