clutch problems, tried and failed

I have some problems with my clutch. i was driving home and tryed to down shift to turn onto my road and i felt that i had no more clutch pedal. so i did a newb search and thought that it might be my master and slave cylinder so i bled them and i still i had no clutch so i figured i'd buy a new master and slave cylinder. so i did and i replaced the old with the new and bled and bled and still no clutch pedal. any ideas what might be the problem?

Your clutch disc may have seperated. If your 7 is new to you but hadn't been driven by the previous owner for a while this may happen. Sometimes it just happens to cheap clutches.

Even if the disc is separated, there should be some tension in the pedal I would think.
