Now here's a thing. Having had about five attempts to reverse into a confined car port with about 10cm clearance either side from the supports (had to fold the mirrors when straight) and a restricted area to the front that gives you also about 10cm clearance to allow you to turn to straighten the approach to this carport, a strange thing happened to the clutch pedal.
Ok had to slip the clutch to control the approach speed etc, but on applying handbrake, foot still on the brake pedal, the clutch depressed, still in gear, turned the engine off. Foot still on the brake, released the clutch pedal and it only raised about half way. Checked immediately that no carpet had fouled the pedal (carpets are secured type) but then released the foot brake, up came the clutch pedal. With I guess a slightly worried look on my face I started the engine and went through the same procedure. Of course it didn't do it again. It may have always done this, but it was the first time I'd see it.
Anyone else noticed this.
I know the clutch and brake use the same fluid but I wouldn't expect an interaction like that. I was also (only) slightly concerned it took me five attempts to get in the car port as I'd done it first or second time for the past six days.
