clutch pedal problem...

Car: 2003 EVO 8
Clutch: Exedy 4-puck Cerametallic Stage 2


I was driving to work this morning and found out halfway on my way to my office, my clutch pedal was stuck it wouldnt come back up. so i tried to drive it to the parking garage which was another mile down the road and it shifted thru the gears just fine but i had to push the pedal down all the way down... and ease off the pedal everytime i get off in 1st.. the clutch pedal stayed down til i got into the parking garage.

right when i got to the garage and parked my car... i shut off my car tried to pump the pedal and started the car back on and it was in 1st gear. the car then moved forward a little bit about to stall out, then i just shut the motor off..

poped my car into neutral and started back up... clutch pedal is still stuck and i tried to press down the clutch pedal and attempted to shift gears... now it wouldnt go into any gears..

this is my conclusion where it boils down to...
  • bad slave cylinder
  • air in hydraulic system, will attempt to bleed
  • bad clutch

anyone have this experience before?? do you guys believe that my guessing of the problem is correct?

i hope its not the clutch... not in the mood for another clutch job.

either the slave cylinder or air...try air first...luckily the slave cylinder is only 20 bucks and a 30 minute installation...but these are the same symptoms i had...
