Soft Clutch

Need some help here.

Not sure what's wrong but my clutch has gone really soft all of a sudden. Like when you press down it's slow on the return. I'm thinking its the clutch master or slave cylinder. The car still goes into gear with no grinds.

Any input would be helpful.

Thank You!

Check fluid level first, if it's gone below the point of the hose for the clutch master, you need to find out why, top up and bleed.

If it's fine, find the leak.

Is your driver side floor wet?
