what year is your car? 01-02 had the upgraded master and slave, 98-00 have problems. either way i would put all new clutch fluid in, bleed it and see if that works... if it doesnt then its probably your master or slave.

I agree w/ the clutch fluid change out. If it is dark colored, it may be a good time to flush it out. It worked for me.

It also works wonders on brakes too.
