So, after an hour drive on the freeway today (normal 75~), the clutch paddle became soft (like no resistance when stepping on it).. when the paddle is depressed, the clutch separates with the fly wheel with no problem and i was able to put gear in neutral coming to a light.

When the light turns green, paddle down (again feeling no resistance from the paddle), gear to first, clutch paddle slowly up gas paddle slowly down, clunk clunk clunk... something up front choking, chattering, feeling like the clutch just smacked into the fly wheel or something (the same feeling when u just let go of the clutch completely), immediately I stomped on the clutch to prevent a stall... and shift back to neutral.

Thing's back to normal again during the next cold start.


What's happening? I read somewhere online mentioned soft clutch paddle related to brake fluid leak??!!?!? How's that even related?


Please help!
