This had happened all of the sudden, I have turned on the emergency lights (not because something happened for another reason) and something happened and I could not put in my gear, so final I managed to put it it in. when I stoped my car later after the drive and tried to start it it would not let me there was no noise nothing battery was just fine but the car would not turn on until I pressed the Emergency lights. So I thought the car works fine but from that day on my clutch goes in without resistance to the floor and the cylinder at trany does not move but when pressed abruptly the clutch engages and can change my gear. So because of this i have trouble in putting the first gear as the car will move forward when clutch is engaged( the cylinder at the trany moves about .5 to 1 cm. There is no special noise unless i put reverse I have pump my clutch several times to get it to engage. I dont think that its a clutch because how could this problem just happened because of emergency lights. Fluid reservoir is full.

You can try bleeding the slave cylinder, but it sounds like the clutch MC has an internal leak at the seal and would need to be replaced and the entire system bled again.
