Hi everybody

So yesterday, I was heading down the road in 2nd, tried to get 3rd but the clutch pedal stuck at the floor. Pulled to the side and couldnt get any gears after pulling the clutch pedal... eventually get it into gear and coast home in 1st but the clutch is now shuddering and slipping like hectic.

Took it to the mechanic this morning and he says probably the hydraulics... any ideas from you guys?

The brakes and clutch work from the same hydraulic system.
If the brakes are still fine then it is probably a mechanical part in clutch

Remove the clutch slave cylinder and see if the push rod is not broken.

It's either the master or slave clutch cylinder......more than likely the seals. Might be worth doing the seals on both while you're at it?
