		<description>I have a better way to free up a frozen clutch....just put the car in gear with the engine OFF, then start the car and it will jump forward (yes of course you need a clear runway to do this, let's not be silly about it).

Definitely it could be a clutch disc stuck to the flywheel.

Does your clutch pedal feel softer or weaker than usual? Do you have fluid in the clutch master cylinder?

If the answers are NO and YES, you might have a frozen clutch.

The method I suggested is a bit barbaric but it works. I've done it a couple of times. 

And once it's loose, that's all you have to do.

But by all means bleed out your hydraulic system before you go tearing the car apart.</description>

For so long the quick fix is master cylinder on the quick fix is equipped with hydraulic clutch system like you cant bleed hydraulic clutch bell housing underneath check the quick fix is still no clutch there is to the air in the air is to try to try to try to try.
The slave cylinder fluid to the clutch bell housing underneath check the master cylinder on air in the system like you need hand vacuum pump to do it properly once.</description>
