Issue with F31 2014 2.0d
After a cold start, I drove to the end of the road, halted at an intersection, but the clutch pedal became unresponsive and lacked pressure, preventing me from engaging any gear. I manually lifted the clutch pedal and promptly regained pressure, enabling me to shift gears and continue driving for approximately a mile as if there were no issues. I am a bit worried it will go completely but hoping it is just a one off.
Does anyone have insight into this issue or has anyone experienced a similar situation that required repair?
Thank you.

The master-slave configuration appears to be straightforward to modify.

I suspected as much; is this how they typically begin to malfunction?

This typically indicates a problem with the clutch hydraulics rather than the clutch itself, frequently involving the slave cylinder, master cylinder, or the presence of air in the system. Repositioning the pedal and restoring its functionality aligns with that. I would not disregard it, as it may abruptly cease functioning entirely. It is advisable to have it examined before it results in your being stranded.

I am quite apprehensive about driving.
Are there any online manuals available for their replacement? I could not find anything on YouTube for the F30 or F31.
Thank you
