Check the reservoir fluid and see if it is discolored. If so, then flush and refill the system with new fluid. Let us know if that helps.

Gotta love this forum, one of the best I've had the pleasure of being apart of...happened to me after two 20-min lapping sessions. Noticed it when I was driving around the infield after I finished driving. Didnt notice it so much during the event, but I definitely picked up on it after. Seemed to get a little worse, but as i left the track after the car sat for awhile, it popped right out. Which was cool and worrysome at the samtime because it meant I was definitely having an issue.

I guess I'll just do a fluid change and bleed with some Motul RBF-600 before I go replacing parts. So far this is the first time I've experienced the sticking and I dont plan on doing any other trans work until next year (I figure I'm about due for a clutch), so I am not icthing to replace parts quite yet.

I've taking the car to the dealership when the pedal was sticking and they saw it however they said that it's not covered in the powertrain warranty? Is this true or are they just trying to get out of fixing it?

I'm out of bumper to bumper warranty but I've been complaining about this since I've had bumper to bumper warranty.

It all depends on the dealer's perception. Technically the externally mounted hydraulic slave cylinder would not be part of the powertrain warranty. This is because it is ancillary and not actually part of the motor/trans/driveline. In reality it is fairly cheap to buy one of these and pretty easy to install. The hard part will be bleeding the system which can be made much easier with a mighty-vac. Let me know if you have any further questions.
