Something's wrong with my clutch. I gotta pump it !
Alright so I've been havin some problems.
It started in the morning today when I couldn't start the car because it was as if the clutch wasn't engaging. So I started pumping it and it came back up and it was like nothing ever happened.
Then on my way to school, I stop at a red light, put it into neutral and take my foot off the clutch. Light turns green, press clutch, try to put it into first, I can't do it
I start pumping the clutch for maybe 6 seconds, and it comes back to life, and its like nothing ever happened, and I continue on my way after a few honking horns behind me.
So now as I drive it throughout the day, it happens non stop now. When I feel it losing its position, I start pumping it, and it goes back to normal. Not really a big problem since it all goes back to the way it was.
I thought it was low break fluid, but it's at max.
Now my theories are:
Air in brake system ?
Clutch Master Cylinder ?
Clutch Slave Cylinder ?
There are absolutely no leaks, as I've checked. I honestly have no clue.
Thanks guys.

you can check the slave cylinder and master cylinder. If your fluid level is ok its possible one of them is bad. Another thing could be the tob. Our cars use a hydraulic tob and when they start to go bad/go bad thats what will happen
