Default Clutch?stays down when I leave it in gear to long with the clutch engaged

I just got the clutch slave cylinder replaced and clutch fluid flushed. worked for lik a day or two then slowly starting to get stuck again when i let go of the clutch pedal after leaving it in first gear at a stop light. i would have to take my foot and pull it back out.
If it happens and i dont pull it back out it would inch forwards by itself and when i step on brakes would slowly increase (I dunno how to say it but it will continually get worse then die out unless i pull pedal back out)

any help would be appreciated

well if you've already replaced the slave, master cylinder is probably the problem

My 240 used to do this same thing, replace the clutch master and you will be fine.

Try bleeding the system first. After a few days getting my car back from the shop from them replacing the clutch, the same thing happened. I brought it back and all they did was bled it and never had any problems yet.
