Ok, I have a problem and I am not sure what the issue is. I was driving and everything was just fine when I downshifted from 3rd to 2nd and let the clutch out and there was nothing. I can freely shift the car without pressing the clutch at all. I can feel the gears changing, so it does not seem to be a shift linkage issue. When I press the clutch it feels dead like there is nothing there and the clutch is disengaged.

Any ideas thoughts or suggestions?

How about a broken clutch pivot bushing? The plastic cup bushing that goes into the throwout arm and rides on the ball stud? If that fails, it could cause symptoms like that...
