Hi guys having a weird issue with the Prado. The clutch pedal feels notchy when it is both pressed in and let out. It feels like it is catching on little notches like a ratchet if that makes sense? Previous owner had the clutch replaced last year and it hasn't seen many km. Clutch itself feels good with no slipping. No noises or anything. Checked the slave cylinder and it looks OK no leaks and it's full. Anyone experience anything like this? It is smooth as butter until you drive for a little bit. Cheers

It should be very sparingly used that grease too. Maybe you could try and flush it out with more of your lanolin spray. Pull the boot from the clutch cylinder and let loose. You could also remove the bottom four bolts or so from the gearbox/flywheel housing interchange with engine- 17mm, they only hold up a thin cover, from there you could peer up inside and really douse the area while getting someone to pump the clutch

Thanks for the reply MikeyB, I wish I read this earlier while I was under the car. I changed the clutch fluid and bled the system. Clutch pedal issues gone!! ....For a day.... Now its doing the same thing again. I'm not sure if it is sucking in air or what it is doing but there are no leaks in the clutch system. Just weird that the clutch went smooth as silk after a bleed and now it's gone shit again. Gearbox might have to come out anyway as the rear main looks like its leaking. Will have to suss it out a bit more tho.
