Could be more than one problem. Could be bad pressure plate as your dealer says. Could be oil from rear main as sombody elst posted. Could be a sticking clutch from rust and moisture.

I think a better solution would be to open her up and do it right. Until then try blocking the clutch petal down with a block of wood when you put her away.-----Michael Az.
