My 240 recently has a sticky clutch. Before I knew about it my clutch would be about half way in and it would be incredibly hard to change gears. When I stopped at a light and noticed that my car continued to roll without any pressure on the clutch I stuck my foot behind it and popped it back out. See if you can pop the clutch out any further.

i bleed it properly at least thats all i know, the pedel is wierd and doesnt come back up all the way it comes like half way. I relpaced my master cylinder for the clutch and the slave cylinder for the clutch. also any one had the problem with oild in there shift boot? this one was very akward

alright now when i shift gears it is very hard to shift and sometimes when i shift to 3rd or 4th it grinds even if i clutch it or even double clutch it. I replace my MC and SC like noted before and bleed the system anyone have any suggestions what to do next? Tranny fluid would that help?

adjust your clutch pedal, had that same problem on my friends s14, put a small socket to use as an extension to push out the TOB more which was cheesy but worked in the mean time, on my friends eclipse we had the exact same problem put the slave as far away as we can from the fork but not too much to the point where it won't leak/pop out of the slave, bled it like that, pedal became stiffer, pushed out better, smoother shifting, but in our case try one person w/a pushing the fork back w/a pry bar, another to work the bleeder screw, and another for the pedal, worked for me/us
