I floored my car in first and then in second gear with traction control off. Very shortly after the car was difficult to shift into the gears. I basically had to revmatch my car all the rest of the way to work. When I went home I had to give the clutch pedal full travel just to help work the transmission a little.
Does this mean my clutch went bad? I still have pedal feel but now my clutch hardly wants to disengage. I feel like it's always partially engaged because the car move as little when I start it in 1st.
If I floor it in say 3rd 4th or 5th gear and the clutch doesn't slip does that mean it's okay and most likely something else?
I need to check the master cylinder and slave cylinder to make sure there isn't any leaking but the reservoir is still full.
Btw I have a RPS clutch/flywheel setup

What year? If you have an '03/'04, the clutch fork is weak and will flex under a heavier pressure plate. Could be master/slave problem, but if it's not, could be a pressure plate issue.
