Ok, I have a 91 tsi awd. I put in a jdm cyclone in about a month ago. I have the stock clutch that came with the motor since I didn't have the money at the time to put one in. Problem after problem so far. Anyway, the other day I was messing around, beating on my car. I revved the car to 7k and popped the clutch (don't sit here and just call me stupid, I know that it's not good for the car, I'm looking for help not criticism) and got one of the best launches. It didn't slip or anything, the tires broke loose for a second and then I got instant grip.
Anyway after that I decided to take it easy on the car since it is old and stuff is bound to break. About 45 mins after that, I wanted to try it just one more time, so I did. This time when I popped the clutch at 7k it started slipping for a second, which is normal, I redlined first, put it in neutral and came to a complete stop. I pushed the clutch in and it just went straight to the floor got stuck for a second and then came back up. I couldn't put it in gear after that. I had to turn the car off put it in gear and start the car and drive it home like that.
Since then I've changed the clutch master and slave cylinder and bled them both properly. The clutch feels like it gets some pressure near the very bottom but it gets stuck and don't come back up. Could it be that I didn't adjust the rod on the master cylinder right? I still can only put it into gear while the car is off, but the car will move if I start it while it's in gear. So that means the clutch isn't shot right?
Btw, the car is bone stock. Any ideas?
