Hello,
I have a defender 1986 12j engine. The clutch pedal seems to be ticking in the middle on return after engaging a gear but returns to normal every time I step on the pedal twice ( more like pumping). I tried bleeding the slave cylinder, it improved but only for a few days and the problem was back again.
The brake fluid in the reservoir has a dark colour close to the colour of used oil.
I have no idea what is about to go wrong or is wrong already. Somebody said it could be the bearing, gearbox needs to be dropped to replace it, someone else said it could be the master cylinder which needs replacing, please help.
