Clutch Master Cylinder
Can anyone tell me how to recognise if a clutch master clylinder is on it's way out?
I've checked the fluid and it's full to the brim with no leaks, yet I am still getting this problem:

OK, thought the clutch problem may of been a one off, but I can get the clutch slipping in any gear now except 1st.
Here's a video of exactly what's happeneing, this is in second gear, up a fairly steep hill, with my left foot NOT resting on the clutch at all.

When the clutch slips, the car vibrates very violently. Just the same as if you get it wrong when setting off in first gear.
Does anyone know if clutches have any adjustment, or is it foooked?
Not a happy bunny at all.

as far as checking the mastercylinder all you need to do is get someone to depress the pedal while you check to see if the slave cylinder moves. You will probably have to take the I C off to get a good view.
