Default is my awe stage 3 clutch done?

the clutch never slipped under full throttle, but now the clutch pedal pulsates when pressing it and the car wont go into gear when it's on..
the pedal has always been stiff on the last 1" of travel, strange because this clutch doesnt have a SAC..

i can actually get it into gear with the car on by pressing the clutch all the way in, then slowly releasing the clutch, about 1/3 of the way up, the shifter slides into 1st gear and i can drive off...

if im stopped while holding the clutch at that 1/3 point to get the shifter into 1st gear, if i press the clutch pedal all the way down to the floor while in 1st gear, the clutch starts to engage and the car starts to jerk forward!

it's about 10 months old and has about 5k miles on it, blah!

Default It sounds like a clutch master or slave cylinder issue. You could try to bleed it at the slave

cylinder. If you have air in the system, that could cause issues.
