Default Clutch not engaging

hey guys when i push in the clutch it feels as if there is no pressure. I was think it was either the slave cylinder or just no fluid. How would i figure that one out. Also could the cold have anything to do with it? it didnt start messing up until the windchill got down to the negative degrees? The car wont start because of it either. Any help would be appreciated

Have you checked the fluid? Is it up? Is it discolored? Maybe it just needs to be flushed out, which will rule out water (ice), air and if it holds , the slave itself. A new slave is cheap though.

Hose probably cracked and leaked fluid out, air bubbles in. Check for leaks and do what ^^^^ said - flush that old fluid out. If that doesn't do the trick, you may have mechanical problems and it just decided to take a crap on you during the winter. :rick:
