I'll preface this by saying I promise to update the thread as a figure out the issue. So many thread dead ends.
I recently purchased a 2006 Audi S4 Avant (6 speed M obviously). The car has 120,xxx and I put 2100 on since I bought it. Not going to lie I have been testing the capabilities now and then, not necessarily beating it though.
Last night I was coming home from town and went to pass a diesel truck that was 'rolling cOaL" on me. Well it turned into a bit of a race. I was cognizant of my shifting/clutch work and rpms (driving m/t since I could drive) and everything was going as it should.
ISSUE AND SYMPTOMS::
Shifting from 3rd to 4th at or about redline I lost my clutch pedal. It was at the floor and staying there. I coasted, considered what gear I needed to Rev match into to get home.
While I was coasting in neutral I worked my foot under the pedal and got the pedal to return. I pumped it a few times and it seemed to work, with some ABS like feedback and faint sound. I was able to shift through all gears home. Coasting in gear (foot off the gas) I observed the rpms drop to idle when the clutch pedal was depressed (as they should).
I gave it some "pulls" to see if there was slippage did not seem to notice any.
Got home 3 miles later, parked it turned it off in neutral. After restarting it I cannot put the car in gear while running.
SYMPTOMS:
-Initially clutch pedal dropped to floor
-Able to be shifted up and down after
-doesnt seem to slip
-ABS vibration type feedback/noise from pedal when driving
-seemingly weak clutch pedal now
-will not go into gear while running
KNOWN:
-Good service history probably original slave cylinder and clutch
-car made it home after incident
-break fluid reservoir stayed full
Thank you in advance for any help or discussion! 20210903_150038.jpg
