Clutch pedal strangeness

On Tuesday I had an Exedy Organic and standard flywheel fitted to my Evo 4 due to the old clutch slipping.

Now the clutch has done just over 100miles since then, and the pedal 'feel' seems to change from one to another on a journey.

Start off from cold, pedal is low downish along with the biting point - quite light, and clutch is very snappy (to be expected) - gradually during my 25mile run to work the clutch pedal rises and so does the biting point (obviously I use the clutch a fair bit on the journey), it isn't intermittant/varied biting points, it purely just goes from one to the other. By the end of the journey there is more clutch travel and there seems to be more resistance, and the biting point is higher/more vague.

Anyone know what this could be? Air in the system perhaps?

Cheers in advance :-)

Get the system re-bled and see what happens it sounds to me like there is air in the system babe

Thanks Hun !

Was wondering if their was a common fault as Graeme fitted a OE Mitsi Clutch and that lasted 5k miles, seems the Exedy is going the same. :???:
