Default Looks like it's clutch time.

Went to a friends he the other knight and suddenly I could hear my clutch making a grinding sound whenever I would push the pedal down. Then suddenly the pedal wouldn't come up anymore. So I thought the master cylinder went.

Put a new master cylinder in yesterday and bled the system, but still no pressure in the pedal. So I got a new slave cylinder today. Once installed I started bleeding the system again, and again I wasn't getting any pressure in the pedal.

Went over all the lines and found no leaks anywhere. When bleeding there were zero air bubbles coming out. So the only other thing I can come up with is either the throw out bearing has failed in some way, or my pressure plate is messed up.

Oh, yes I did have help bleeding. Wasn't doing it on my own.

If anyone else has any suggestions of alternative possibilities, I'm open to ideas before ripping the trans out.

Oh I've already swapped mine a couple times as well as the master and slave cylinders. I was just going off false hope of missing something so I wouldn't have to rip out the trans again..lol

If it isn't leaking or sticking in anyway I wouldn't worry about it. But if it sets your mind at ease go for it. It isn't a very expensive part or anything so won't hurt anything.
