Good day, my vehicle has been running fine, idles fine, starts firsts time and drives without any issues until last week. The clutch pedal lost all pressure and function, so I had to drive home with no clutch. On inspecting the gearbox and surrounding parts I noticed some clear oily liquid had spilled from a part above the gearbox and clutch area which I figure was brake/clutch fluid. So do you have any idea as too what might have caused the loss of pressure on the clutch?
Regards,
Phil.

That would be your clutch slave cylinder. It will have to be replaced and the system bled out. Here is a guide that will help show you and a video that shows the job being done but on a different car but the process is the same. You bleed the slave by just pumping the pedal for about 10 minutes. Keep the fluid full.

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
