I was on my way home today and I was having trouble shifting for about 2 shifts & then I was no longer able to shift. So I finished my drive home with out using the clutch. Jacked it up and looked. I don't see any leaks from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder. I did try bleeding it & that didn't help. I can't get the car into any gear while it is running because the clutch is not working. Does this sound like my slave cylinder went bad?

yes. Pop off the clutch inspection cover and have a buddy hit the clutch. You should be able to see the clutch fork assembly pull out...

did the peal pressure change since the time that you were still able to shift until now?
