This once happened to Flamenco-T, except his fluid was completely gone... After filling it, we had to *burp* the system to get all air bubbles out to build pressure... Did you have to re-fill your brake fluid when it first happened...? If so, your problem may lay there... If not, your master cylinder may be bad...

yes, try bleeding the lines. It works just like a brake bleed.

also, check if your master cylinder is bad. take a look under the dash, and right above the clutch pedal. if there's fluid there, your clutch master cylinder is bad.

Sounds like air in the lines. Also like recommended above, check for fluid under the dash around the MC.

I just bled the clutch fluid last weekend.

The clutch pedal was soft, then it failed completely. A few minutes of pumping brought back the pressure. Luckily my friend who was testing the car only took the car locally. Else we would have had to get a tow truck to go on the highway
