Default clutch problem

okay, 6am, already 10 mins late to work. go to push in the clutch and start the car and i hear a loud noise, almost snappy sounding, and sufice to say the clutch doesnt do anything. i can push it to the floor and it stays there. i have to manually lift it back up. i did turn the eninge on once just to see and the clutch engages because i move a bit although i cant change gears or nothing. just had a stage 3 clutch put in 2 weeks ago. i didnt see a fluid from the slave or master although it doesnt always have to have an external leak to be leaking. maybe a cable? i have no clue i cant see **** in these engine compartments. any ideas?

Well first, tow it to the dealer and find out what is really going on. Hopefully it will be repaired under warrenty. do you have power adder mods on the car? Is it a stock clutch?

Definitely sounds like some kind of leak, or maybe your clutch line really, really really needs to be bled.

what brand stg 3 clutch did you buy? Sounds like something broke or fell out of place in the clutch assembly. Take it back to the shop that installed it. They should warranty their work.
