    What's wrong with my clutch (Mini Cooper -04)

    Hi.

    My clutch suddenly stopped working friday morning. When I press clutch down all the way it just releases "half way", and the motor i "dragging" or sticky, so to speak. It's very hard to get the car into gear, and when I do, the car runs really much, so I have to apply the brakes. If I release the clutch pedal it works normal. No strange noises or anything.

    I lifted the air-filter box and checked the slave cylinder, and it seems to be working fine, it moves a rather long way when I press the clutch pedal down.......

    What could be the problem here? Any ideas ?

    Possibly the throwout bearing (clutch release bearing) gave it up. How many miles onthe clutch?
