Okay, so for some reason I was just about to start my car, pushed down on the clutch and it stayed there? Car still started but clutch felt like there was noooo pressure at all. Searched on here and it seemed to be linked to either master/slave cylinder or hydraulic leak. Checked both master and slave, both perfectly fine, checked everywhere I could think of for leaks etc, and come up with nothing. I even squeezed my 6'4 body under the dash to check for maybe a faulty spring or something. Still nothing and I'm all out of ideasssss, anyone help? Btw I've searched everywhere already and found nothing else that could help me. I really don't want to take this to a mechanic lol Got like no money left because of Christmas.......

Sounds like the seal in the master cylinder has a hole in it which you wont see. You can buy a rebuld kit for a few bucks at a auto parts store.

thanksss, cool will look into it. Would that causs the clutch to just suddenly fail like that because it was perfect like earlier today?

If you can't see any leaks under the hood at the master cyl., slave cyl. or the line connecting them, it's probably running down the inside of the firewall. I read a post recently where a guy found his carpet was soaking up clutch fluid.

How's the fluid level? It should drop with every press of the pedal, if there's a leak.

Hmmmm thank's for the good pointer I'm going to do a more thorough check tomorrow. Fluid levels are fine, I manually pumped the clutch and the levels didn't change at all.

This is very true the kit don't cost much at all my pedal did the same thing new kit fixed it.

Problem Solved!!!!!!!! Got my friend (Auto Expert) to help me take a look, turns out condensation from snow evaporating around my block froze on some lines causing the clutch to stick. Solution: Let car heat up for an hour and pump the living hell out of the clutch! Thanks everyone for the help well appreciated!!!!!!

There's only one line that would matter and that's the clutch hydraulic line.
You need to flush/fill/bleed your system ASAP...brake fluid shouldn't freeze and if it is, it's absorbed a lot of water and is no longer any good.

Done done and done lol Just finished today but now clutch is fine and another problem has occured.............a very BIG lack of power, step on accelerator and almost stalls for half a second then starts reving but barly any power to the wheels. Vacuum on the boost guage was much lower than normal, checked for leaks didnt find anything all lines were connected as should be, checked all plugs, perfectly fine. Maybe injectors or fuel pump??? Right when throttle opens engine sounds like its knocking.....then normal. Very rough Idle as well I played with the screws but notin.
