ok...so today more weird things began happening.

1.Get into car, clutch pedal is 3/4 depressed and sticking as i sit down.

2.Cant get into reverse at all...but if i have the clutch depressed and hold the shifter towards 6th, the car moves very slowly in reverse...in other words it is not in gear, but catching a little. Not grinding.

3. When at a light while in 1st gear the car almost wants to move ahead....again, seems as though the clutch being depressed does not disengage the gear.

thoughts?

do you know if you bled the clutch correctly?

if you did...did you replace your master and/or slave cylinder?

do you know which one was leaking? if any...?

you keep listing your symptoms...but i'm not sure what corrective action you've applied...i think you mentioned you bled the line...but if you did...it should have corrected the problem, even temporarily until the leak gets worse...

something doesn't add up here...if you filled and bled...you would notice an improvement immediately, unless the fluid you just filled leaked out all over the place...

what happened to your clutch fluid since this bleed? is it still there?

^i have bled clutches before and brakes many many times without incident. This seems to not be the cause and there were no obvious leaks. I am getting less and less clutch feel and it is very hard to get into any gear.

in about 2 hrs ill be under the car again seeing what i can do

Why don't you take it in before it's undrivable.
