Default CLutch Pedal

Clutch pedal went to the floor, stuck there. Could not shift into any gear. Coasted to stop off the road. Reached down, pulled pedal up, and has worked fine since. What could have pissobly happened, something wearig out? Only have 26000 on my 14.

Well, you don't have a cable, so...

If the clutch pedal will not return or is too low, then the system has a leak and
must be repaired and then bleed the air from the system. The slave cylinder
could be broken too.

Sounds like a failing clutch master cylinder.

dirt perhaps in the cable, or possibly a torn spot in the cable which is catching the wire as it returns? See if a shop can put it on a lift to get a good look at it, maybe one guy can sit in it and push the clutch in and out to see if it binds or is in the clutch itself...I can't imagine the clutch fork being the issue.
Good luck amigo

The 2005, S197, Hydraulic Clutch, has a CABLE?

The clutch is hydraulic Nate. There is no cable.
It's quite likely that the piston inside the master cylinder got stuck, and the OP managed to free it by pulling the pedal up. If it happened once it'll happen again. You just don't know when but Finagle's Law says it'll happen at the worst possible moment.
