Engine cut out, Clutch stuck to the floor!
Help! Any ideas??? Was sat in a queue for a car wash, and the Scoob started to cut out, and judder. I revved it, but it died 
Took my foot off the clutch, which was planted to the floor, and the pedal stayed down solid. I had to lift it manually, then started the car, and everything was back to normal, and it seems fine. Any idea's guys??? Cars just come back from a 90k Service too

did they change the oil of the clutch cillinder?
if they did, you've got air in it, if they didn't the oil boiled.
Solution:
Bleed the air out
or
replace the fluid

Cheers David!!! FFS, cant these garages get anything right! They did a 90k, which i guess meant replaceing all the fluids. Hopefully, it wont do it again then, cos it's a 45 min drive to them, and I dont trust em anymore
