| I had this problem before and it turned out to be the release bearing in the clutch pressure plate, being a tight bar steward I removed the pressure plate and lubricated the bearing with wd 40 untill it was free and then sprayed some grease onto the bearing. the repair has lasted for 3 years!
It is fairly easy to spot if this is the fault if you remove the clutch cover you cab see the centre of the bearing in the centre of the clutch pressure plate
it should not spin with the clutch if it does try lubricating the bearing first before changing parts!! also it is common for the pushrods to snap and this can cause all kinds of clutch releadse faults
