First, check if you have "cable" actuated clutch or, Hydraulic. If it's hydraulic, check "fluid level" container, (some vehicles have both clutch and break fluid in one container). if full, check clutch fluid line, (Pipe) for keakage, if ok to this point, check "slave" cylinder rubbers for keaks, (It's bolted to side of bell housing "connecting engine to gearbox"), If all of this is ok, then the next item i would check would be the Pressure plate, lining, and thrust bearing mechanisum, if still no joy, then a replacement clutch or gearbox or both will be required.best wishes, good luck, hope you find the problem.

First thing, there's no such thing as clutch fluid in a car, if it's leaking fluid it may be you have a hydraulic clutch mechanism
and that's what's leaking. The oil is in the clutch actuating mechanism and not the clutch itself. if that's not it you may have blown a front seal on the tranny and that will need to be replaced, along with the clutch if it got oil on it.

You need a new clutch plate assembly. Maybe go here for help.

First check your clutch cable. If your cable is fine, sorry for the bad news but you will need a new transmission.

there could be cable slack, check the clutch cable all the way. if nothing wrong there, it could be the transmission.
