Well if ur clutch master and slave cylinder are good and ur clutch isnt fully releasing then u have a worn pressure plate with some bad fingers that doesnt allow the clutch disc to fully release all the way around it allow it to hang up. Sounds like its time for a new clutch let me know how it goes.
