my clutch pedal is pretty much stuck all the way to the floor, you can pull it back up but goes right back down and it wont go into gears. there is no play at all on my clutch. i thought the problem would be the slave cylinder or master cylinder. so i changed them both and still nothing. has anyone had this problem as well. plzzz help

did you ever get like a whining noise coming from the pressure plate/throwout bearing area?

check archived tech thread. i believe there is something in there for fixing this problem.

is your return spring broken?

naw i did wat LA_phantom_240 said and it worked. i just had to keep bleeding them and then BLAM it worked. but the clutch isnt catching untill the pedal is pretty much all the way up. isnt there a way to make it so it catches earlier?

You can adjust clutch engagement using the threaded shaft that connects the clutch pedal to the clutch master cylinder.
