This happend to me also, if the clutch goes to the floor without any tension then check your linkages first to be on the safe side, a spring on the pedal may have came off if your lucky. In my case the throw out bearing in my clutch went bad and ruined the clutch itself. Hope this helps, if you know how to do clutch work you can save a bundle and even put a performance clutch in for more than half of what a shop will charge. I had to take my car to a shop and it ran me 650 for just the oem clutch plus installation. -
Check your hydraulics first. The master and/or slave cylinder may have gone bad. However, it's entirely possible that something came loose in the clutch assembly, and the transmission will have to come down to correct it. At least then you'll know if that clutch is new or not!
No pressure usually means bad hydraulics, though. If the clutch was bad, the engine wouldn;t be able to send power to the wheels.
