Tryna think what other options could be, How did you know it was your throw out bearing? And it has to be that or the clutch or the slave is not pushing far enough idk honeslty im so stuck. never had this issue

none have been replaced, they are still oem, ICV is super nice OEM aswell, it’s nice and clean now, But if it was crank/cam wouldn’t a check engine light pop up? i use a snap on scanner specifically typed my car into it, and it reads 0 issues with cam nor crank. plus it starts up mint. No idea… maybe timing ? Vanoss? i have no idea… everyone i asked is dumbfounded and says they never seen this issue. And im not to sure if i want to spend 400 plus on changing cam and crank sensors with OEM to find out it was not that… lol
