Clutch not engaging

Well, i was driving and after a short pull i try to change gear and it wouldnt go into any gear. Then i realize that pressing the clutch pedal is not doing anything at all, so at low rpm i can push into gears, just as driving without clutch. What shouod i look at? Throw out bearing? Bleeding? (The pedal has exactly the same feeling as before).

look through the inspection hole and verify that the wave clip is still intact in the pressure plate.

If your clutch pedal is hanging out on the floor, than my friend it time for a new clutch system, throw out bearing might have failed..

Sounds more like clutch not disengaging. What clutch?

I'd try bleeding first or look to see that the slave has proper stroke. However, If dual, probably warped, if single, something is broken and jammed between flywheel and pressure plate.

When you push the pedal does the slave cylinder push the release fork? If not you have a problem with the hydrolics, if so its probably either a TOB or pressure plate issue.

Most of the pedal feel comes directly from the pressure plate. So, if pedal feel is normal I gotta think everything down to the pressure plate is normal.

I have you had someone look at the slave cylinder while you pressed the pedal?

He wrote the shop was "taking it down" on the 13th. I take that to mean pulling the transmission. So, should be fixed and on the road by now.
