Exclamation HELP! Major Clutch Problem

ok, so last night when i was driving home i depressed the clutch like normal to shift, and i heard a POP and all of a sudden the pedal got really hard. then i went to put it into gear and realized the clutch wasnt disengaging. i pulled into a parking lot to check the fluid level, and it was fine. I still couldnt get it to disengage so i had to turn the car off and start it in first to get going, then just shifted w/o the clutch (sorry syncros). but if i press the clutch all the way down, it almost starts to disengage. so do you guys think i blew the master, slave, or something stupid in the clutch? ...i think its time for an ls7 clutch.


and sorry to that guy that i cut off when i blew the red light trying to limp the car home

No one replied to my thread either I guess were on our own, lol. Sounds like you'll just have to pull the trans and look. When I broke my slave it didnt leak any fluid.

It sounds like you broke the slave cylinder. Need to pull the transmission out and check everything.

Yeah it could be a number of things. Sounds like something to do with the hydraulics or maybe the plastic bearing broke off the clip. Either way like said before your to the point of having to drop the tranny.
