No Clutch pedal Pressure?
I returned from the airport, and start my car let her sit for about 5 minutes then head out on my journey home. Everything was fine, about a minute into my journey the pedal sinks to the floor, and the engagement point is like an inch from the floor, and I had to feather it all the way home. I JUST put an ACT street clutch and new Dual mass flywheel in last march. Any ideas on what could be causing this? I had never had it slip or anything up until this point.
I haven't done any track day nor quarter mile run on the ACT unit. I have not smelt it burn or anything. On my OE unit I had done numerous quarter runs and smelt the clutch burning before it went out.

I'm am no expert on this matter, but the only thing I can think of is air in the lines. Not sure that helps much. Hopefully someone else will chime in.

Bleed your Clutch? Have you gotten your CDV removed recently?

In other cars I might guess it may be low on hydraulic fluid, but IIRC our cars share the hydraulic fluid with the brakes, and I believe there is a sensor that would warn you of low brake fluid, but that is something else you can check.

the chamber is part of the brake reservoir, but it is separated, it won't empty enough brake fluid out to signal the level sensor
