Ok, I was driving the other day and at a stop light I put the clutch pedal down, put the car in first and the friction point on the release of the pedal was almost at the floor. I pulled into a parking lot and the pedal went down and stayed down. I could pull it back up with my foot and it would spring back. I drove home with no problems. Drove it again today and the problem is back. Bigger and badder than before. It seems to be worse in reverse and sometimes in 1st gear. Anyone else had this problem or know what could be causing it?



Thanks!

do you know how to bleed the clutch ? sounds like thats all you need to do, have you replaced or bled any brake related items at all ?

I replaced my rotors recently.

I have the shop manual for the car but I cannot find the damn bleed valve for the clutch.

go under the car, look at the trans bell housing, look to the drivers side you'll see a black cylinder , you'll see a bleeder vlave on the end, its above the starter
