Clutch issue

Other thing to check is the route of the pipe to the slave cylinder, does it pass very close to the exhaust pipe / manifold. If it does this may be overheating the fluid. I ended up fitting a banjo type fitting to the slave cylinder to maximise the distance between the clutch fluid pipe and the exhaust pipe.
Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine!

Good point about routing of the hose. It can easily happen that the hose gets close or contacts the exhaust causing failure.
But, the issue I was having was that the clutch would lose pressure after a period of time while just sitting in the garage after initial successful bleeding. No temperature effect.
