    If the clutch pedal is sticking to the floor intermittantly, you may need a clutch slave cylinder or clutch master. If you manually pull the pedal up do you get a pedal again? if so I would say change the slave.

      yea the pedal is moving freely back and forth easily...and actually retracts now, but there is hardly any pressure needed to push it in... now im quite sure its a hydralic deal system.. but some guy at school tells me that the 2001 and prior were fitted with cable clutches is this possible... also if it is slave cylinder and clutch master.. how much would this cost to fix??

        Hello
        All 1999.5 (MarkIV) cars use hydraulic clutch. It is probably one of two things. Your hydraulic fluid is low (brake reservoir) or usaully the slave cylinder failure (master cyl rarely fail). A new slave is approx $75 and expect to pay 0.5 to 0.75 labour.
