Hello,
It could be a failed pressure plate. Remove the plastic plate thing were the line goes down to the slave and see if you observe the fingers that contact the release bearing. If they are uneven looking the pressure plate is at fault. I am not sure if you can see the small flat spring metal on the sides or not. If you can see them and one of them is broken its your pressure plate. I have seen this failure often on 9000 and if you don't fix it soon it will take out the gearbox. The vibrations and force of the clutch not fully releasing seem to were the crush sleeve that preloads the bearings in the gearbox and lead to a whole lot of were inside there. Good Luck, Bernie
