Can anyone help went to silverstone yesterday and got stuck in a queue for over an hour (my 350 has had a brand new clutch and flywheel fitted 2 months ago ) my clutch started to stick then nearer the end it got even worse where I had to force her in to gear now could this be a engine cooling problem or the clutch itself? It runs fine any other time any help will be appreciated

I've had a new slave cylinder in as well not sure if he did fluid change and braid line will check paperwork and ask the mechanic. Also would it be worth upgrading the fan to a mishimoto twin fan? Cheers for the help

The fans wont affect your clutch so id save your money for now. If the slave cylinder has been changed then make sure the other 2 bits that Zmanalex mentioned have as well.

...following that, it could well be a defective new cover plate or sticking release bearing? - hopefully bearing was changed with clutch kit so both warranty covered - release arm + bearing re-assembled incorrectly?
