    Let me buddy drive it one night & he wasn’t beating it up too bad but I let him get on it & he said I was shifting like Paul Walker lol I think he was just excited & pushing the clutch pedal hard as shit

    Anyway I hop in the driver seat & tried to build pressure in the pedal, then reached down & popped it back up.

    I haven’t had a problem since
    But it’s still the stock clutch 134k miles
    Slave cylinder ?

    Could be over extended yup, I'd start with a clutch bleed I've seen that fix the issue although sometimes the slave cylinder needs to be replaced.

    Much like doing brakes, pump clutch, hold to floor let a little out, close bleeder lift pedal, repeat.

    Now one thing to not with the soeeds is that the brake reservoir is dual, the clutch resovoir is in the back and in order to fill it the fluid line needs to basically be at the full line on the brake fluid level. So keep it over filled when bleeding the clutch.

    I've had an intermittent clutch sticking issue on my gen2, too. I think I fixed it (fingers crossed) by finally just giving it a bleed. Definitely got some air out of the line and it feels a ton better now.

    I bet it needs bled bad
    Most the time they just need a little attention & care [emoji56]

    Bleeding did not solve my issue, but I think I may finally have found my culprit. Idk what the ms6 pedal assembly looks like but on my ms3, there's supposed to be a stopper here that my assembly is missing, thus allowing me to overextend the cylinder arm. Take a peek at yours and maybe it could be something so small and dumb?

    I had the same problem you are explaining on my Speed6. I had a crack in the pedal bracket. I noticed that the clutch slave barely travelled far enough to fully release the clutch.
