Low clutch pedal
Pedal felt soft over the weekend , then went to the floor and wouldn't return up..
Dealer is replacing the clutch servo ( cylinder )on the pedal, I did the tank and the accumulator last year

This part failed fast, I will advise if there is a new part and the # of this one..

Interesting, I had the mystery leak that must have leaked everywhere but my driveway as I never saw a drop anywhere when my clutch would pick up right off the floor. Dealer said he filled it up and that was that.

I'd be willing to bet that a fair number of us have had a problem with this...I had mine replaced when my car was in Dallas for its conversion...I should have just gotten rid of the slave and deleted it.

My clutch pedal went to the floor last Oct. with less than 1k miles on the car. Never found any fluid, dealer said there was an internal leak and replaced the slave.
About 1 Month ago, I found clutch fluid on the garage floor. The leak appeared to come from the clutch fluid reservoir area. Dealer said there was a loose clutch line, bled and refilled the fluid. Got the car back, and it's still leaking. But this time, I found that the fluid was being pushed out of the vent hole on the reservoir cover. Took the car back to the dealer and they replaced the slave cylinder again.
Got the car back yesterday and I noticed there's a difference in pedal feel with the new slave. The pedal feels heavier and there's this extra resistance that wasn't there before. The resistance is only there when you clutch in and it's more pronounced if you step on it quicker. If you clutch in real slow then you can't really feel it. And with the car off, the resistance is not there either.
Thought that wasn't normal so took the car back to the dealer right away and showed the tech. But he said Porsche came out with a new replacement part for the slave and that's how it's suppose to feel now. Oh well, we'll see how long this one lasts.
