I was using my Vito with no problems, turned off the engine, started her up and the gear would not engage as if the clutch was not depressed. I turned the engine off, pumped the pedal vigorously, started her up and it was fine. Drove home fine (10 miles), the next day, no clutch and pumping the clutch will not rectify!!

I have checked that I have plenty off fluid, which I do and that's about the extent of my investigations, although I have spent plenty of time with my head under the bonnet looking at things!!!

Any assistance gratefully received!!

This could be either the master cylinder or the slave one at fault

Is it possible that I have a split in a hose or somewhere that is letting a small amount of air in??

No sir as the fluid would come out if there was a hole anywhere

seconded here. it can be difficult to work out which. trial and error is the only way, as far as i know!

does the clutch pedal not stick down if the fluid has air in it?
