General Sticky clutch?

[Hertsman]

I have a 2004 Panda Dynamic with less than 12k on the clock. Just recently the clutch pedal has started to stick on the floor. When I dab it again it springs back up. Have other Panda owners experienced this and/or have any ideas what is causing it and what I need to do to fix it? Clutch return spring 'springs' to mind - sorry for the pun!

Check the simple things first. Any mats/carpets in the way?

Thanks for the speedy response guys.

Chatted it over with Mario & Paul at Avanti Autos in Ipswich this morning. They scared me with their thoughts it could be the brake master cylinder I will sound out the service department at DBS Desira and let you know what they think
