Default clutch is getting sticky???

every once in a while, when I turn a corner and shift... or if im going slow... my clutch get's sticky, I will push it in, and then shift, and then release.. it will kinda get "caught up" on something... anyone know what this could be? Im thinking throw-out bearing.... but it's a brand new clutch, throw-out, piliot and flywheel...

i dunno i fyou got the same prob from me but i got a brand new clutch for my b18c1 in my EH, but it gets "sticky" most of the time. but in "sticky" i mena the pedal itself, my problem is the clutch pedal spring is old and squeaks creaks however it did feel sticky before it satrted to make noise. what chassis you have and how many miles on it? if its a older car like mine maybe you have the same problem, hope this helps if not hope it reduces the query of problems of what could be wrong.

well im pretty sure there is one my friends dad thats a mechanic works on domestics he says most domestic manual cars have a pedal spring especially vw's. cuz if hondas dont have such a clutch pedal spring then i guess all this time i would be talking outta my ***.

have you guys checked to see if your clutch master cylinders are leaking? because if it is leaking it it not getting enough hydrolic pressure to engage/disengage the clutch
