i've had that problem with my car...my clutch is hydrolics and the problem that i found out was that my master cylinder was leaking...all i do now is refill it with brake fluid every three weeks or so to make sure it doesnt run out and f**K my car up...didnt bother to get it fix as some people told me it's gonna leak again...besides...brake fluid is like 3$ for like 4L? lasts around over half a year for me...not sure if your car is havin the same problem as mine..check your master cylinder out? or look under your clutch see if any fluid's leakin onto your carpets?

bleed the clutch master cylinder if that doesn't work then replace it.

also if your clutch is hydrolic.

Check to see if your clutch line is ok as well, its right by your transmission.

Mine had a puncture in it and was loosing pressure over night, as it was leakinng out the fluid. Topping it up helped, but eventually replacing the clutch line fixed my problem.

did you happen to use 87 octane gas recently?

use your hand and touch the rod that is connected to your clutch, if you feel it wet, your master is leaking.
but chances are your master is leaking anyways, and check the fluid to see if you lost any.
