2008 Manual. Intermittent clutch problem. After driving for 30 minutes clutch goes slack with no resistance. Wait 30 minutes and it comes back! Any ideas?

Have you looked at brake fluid level?

Yeah, all fluids ok.

Almost certainly a slave and master cylinder issue I recommend replacing both, look to see if the pipework is OK if yes then you can re use the old pipe, do the earth cable too

Check the quick connector under the passenger wing this can leak causing issues, note the clutch has its own reservoir not the brake one top left standing in front of the car
