It's either the clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder. No cables in the clutch linkage in these cars - it's a hydraulic system.

 

haha ^^ your right. i got the car back today this is what the dealer typed up

Found clutch master cylinder disconnected from bulkhead clutch depresses with no clutch movement. clutch master cylinder slideing through bulkhead. removed underhood fuse block and housing removed clutch master cylinder. inspected clutch master cylinder reataining tabs. tabs ok. reinstalled clutch master cylinder

they tested my car i think on the road because when it was droped off the mpg where at 23.9 when i got it they where at 17.4 someone drove it and drove it hard.

 

they probly just had to run the livin **** out of it to make sure everything held,they probly redlined it the whole time.LOL
