Car stuck at my work =(

So well this morning I was driving into work and my Clutch pedal Was hard to push all the way down into Neutral. Well today at lunch me and my freinds went out to lunch and it was really hard to shift into gears. Like you had to slam the Gears just to get it into gear While the Clutch was all the way down. Well after work the car wont even Shift into Reverse. And Still have to slam the gears so i just left the car at work.

Really dont know what it is...Could be a bad clutch or fly wheel? Not to sure. Just bought the car last month. Its a 06 Cobalt SS/SC. Bought it used. Only has 26k miles on it. Never beated on it. Clutch was in good shape when i bought it.

Any help on what it is would help. Going to try to fix it at work tonight or try to drive it into the dealership if it under the powertrain warrenty

Try pumping the clutch a few times to build some pressure. Does it feel like its not engaging when you push it in?

try pumping the clutch a few times, see if itll go into gear then. from what you are describing it sounds like your slave cylinder is leaking.

air pocket! inspect for leaks in both the clutch and brake systems, and repair. then, bleed the system. if you only bleed the clutch it will pull fluid from the brakes, causing the problem to result in the brakes not engaging when needed. You need to bleed all 4 brakes and the clutch until you think you got all of the air out
