Clutch went dead!

As i was coming to a stop in 1st gear i pushed in my clutch and it just went completely dead and stuck to the floor. I think it is the slave cylinder. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

i think it could be that urclutch line went out, or you have a leak somewhere, probly when they put ur clutch in...


how would i know

well me and my friend came from arizona to LA and we were fine the whole way, there were a few big bumps and the car bottomed out. well 5 miles away from my house my friend downshifted... the clutch went to the floor, there is probly no fluid in ur clutch resivor...

well i think you will have to find out if you have a hole it in.. and if there is.. you will need to patch it.. also i think you will need to Bleed it till there is no air in it.. that could be why there is still no pressure in it.. i am not 100% on it.. but i am thinking it has the same type of setup as the brake system.. as of how you do that... i think there should be something in the man.

its probly a lose hose somewhere that fell out, thats what happened to my friend... when they replaced ur clutch, they probly didn't tighten the line somewhere... there usually a bolt or something lose after you take it to a shop... its rare, but happens, take it back to the shop and say WTF, the clutch isn't working, and since they didn't do it right, they have to ofix it... or else, go to the better biz burrow....
