Does bleeding the clutch help with ocasional clutch slip during light driving. The clutch seems fine when pusshing hard but occasionally whilst driving around town it slips....any ideas.

think bleeding the clutch would only be a thing to try if the clutch was not vlearing fully and "dragging" so to speak. sounds more like the drive plate is on its last few mm of lining, but try not to leave it too long, or you will overheat the flywheel and create heat cracks, thus costing more money later rather than less, sooner.
