Default Clutch problems

Hi everybody

Was hoping to get some opinions about a problem i am facing with my car.
Its a 2.0TFSI Quattro B8.5

Last November i had a FX350 with Aluminum flywheel installted from Clutch Masters.
Car was driving great until a month or so ago when i started having issues.
No clutch abuse or anything.

The clutch pedal feel is really weird at times. At times the pedal feels stiffer at the last part when coming up and other times its soft.
Which is how it started, now it feels like it sometimes engages really early also.

Find it hard to believe its related to the clutch. But perhaps a master or slave cylinder issue?
Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks

You could try bleeding it. I assume there is a bleeder fitting at the slave cylinder. If it fixes it for awhile and it comes back, there is probably a leak.

I'll give that a try.
To be honest have not checked the master or slave cylinder yet.
Need to see where its located.
