RPS Clutch advice

I had an RPS 6 Puck clutch fitted to the sup TT about 2 years ago. It has always been a little car to select gear 1st and reverse...

 

Its been stored in the garage for about 6 months and just got it out to find the clutch slipping to the point where I can sit with the car in gear, relese the clutch pefal and the car not move forward under its own steam... it starts to crawl when I accelerate at about 4k revs.

 

I ahve bled the system and have the best pedal I ahve ever had on the clutch... but no improvement in the clutch engaging..

 

Any ideas on a fix?? Is the clutch screwed??

 

Its never been dragged or tracked and I am quite easy on clutches tbh.

 

Any advice welcome. I am no mechanic in any way so please don't get too technical for me...

There's a slight chance the driven plate's splines have rusted to the splines on the gearbox input shaft. You could try revving to about 4000 in neutral and pressing then wiping your foot off the edge of the clutch pedal a dozen or so times, that SOMETIMES frees them. Otherwise it's a `box out job to see what's amiss.
