ok, if you would search you would know, but i am going to tell you what to do like everyone else cuz this is a huge problem with everyone. first, bleed your clutch. not trying to be rude, but you need to do the obvious before you post and ask for advice, because if you dont then it is hard to help without telling you to try everything. if you dont know what the obvious is, download the FSM. checking the slave, master, fluid, that type of stuff.

Try what he said first, if that doesn't work it's more than likely a bad master cylinder....but do the cheapest stuff first (unless you're rich!) Sounds like air in the system or a leaking plunger in the master cylinder...just my thoughts

sounds like a slave issue...

it's def something hydraulic, master/slave but whatever it is, look for external leaks before anything....it will save you a lot of money!
