Need help with stuck clutch
So, I have been trying to fix my cluch on my 05. Short story, I was driving, when the cluch pedal suddenly would not retract after I pressed it to shift. I figured it was either the master or the slave cylinder so, I started with the easier one, and changed out the master. No luck. I then changed the slave cylinder (which was a nightmare and a half) and then bled it. My clutch still is sticking. When I bleed the system from the slave cylinder, I get a constant stream of bubbles, with the bleeder valve open and closed. I am using a suction bleeder kit.
I have spent the last few days trying to figure out what I am doing wrong and it's driving me crazy! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you check to see if the bracket weld broke?
It's a common failure point.
BHR even sells reinforced clutch pedals because of it.
I bought one simply because I didn't want to waste time taking it somewhere and waiting to get it welded.

Originally, I did not. I wasn't sure how to do it, so I ended up removing the hard line, pouring a bit into the master, then pushing the clutch pedal and repeating a few time. I assume it's getting fluid, because the slave is pushing out new fluid.

It did a few years back, and I put a reinforced kit on it so, that's one issue that's been solved.

Keep on bleeding. I just did both clutch cylinder's and it takes some time to bleed. I got frustrated and stuck a tube onto the bleed screw and started sucking on it. (I don't have a vac bleeder) lol.

So, I did the same, lol. I had bubbles coming out for like two hours, so I decided to get a suction bleeder and try that out. Pretty much the same situation. I went and checked to see if one of the hard lines were loose or anything and everything seemed ok. I'm fairly certain the master is bled, because I am getting fresh fluid from the bleed valve on the slave
