Default clutch or transmission

this is starting to happen alots:
drive around, get to a stop or a light, first gear, full feet-pression on clutch, rpm will bounce and either want to die(like if the clutch wasnt correctly engaged) or the car will slowly try to move forward so I gotta put bigger pressure on break, it like if I was half way clutch release ready to move...I dont feel anything weird while pushing the clutch, but the car react like if my feet wasnt fully on it...any idea? man my transmission is about to die with all the bearing I hear making noise, cant believe my ****ing clutch is about to go too? argh

oh and sometime my shifter is stock in my gear, like already said in another post, cant get my freaking gear out without pulling HARD on the shifter.

Yes, check your fluids, clutch and trans. You could be low.

Check your clutch fluid not brake fluid.

There is no stick for the auto trans either. Look in your owners manual if you have one. My car didnt come with one, but no matter...... my car now has a trans dipstick! LOL

Are you leaking fluid from behind your clutch inspection plate? If so that is the slave cylinder. Showing signs of a clutch problem some where, although maybe not the clutch itself. You need to check your slave master cylinder resevoir. I do not know if the brakes & clutch pull fluid from the same resevoir. The bright side of it is that if your are fixing to have to pull the transmission your right there any way.

Slave going out. Replace clutch, slave, pilot bearing and resurface or replace flywheel.

Your clutch fluid is your brake fluid.
