The garage also said the hydrolic system was working fine.
To guy who leaves his car in gear on jackstands: The flywheel is new.

And you wouldn't have any issues with depressing the clutch.

The difficulty depressing the clutch just screams master cylinder (or possibly slave) cylinder failure. Or the pressure plate popped a spring.
