So we ran through the shop procedure to properly bleed the clutch hydraulic system (fill power bleeder, attach to reservoir, pump to ~20 psi, hold clutch pedal to the floor, and bleed for 20 seconds) and didn't see any difference. We repeated the procedure another three times and we did get a SMALL amount of air out, but the symptoms are overall unchanged, to include:
- Clutch feels very, very soft but DOES return by itself to its natural position
- When you press the pedal, it's very squeaky, similar to this video I found: https://www.dropbox.com/s/f4sd1ger3jo0j1k/20170419_195542.mp4?dl=0
- At idle, everything appears to be fine, but when in gear and the clutch is completely released it still slips and chatters. After a few moments in gear, you can smell burning clutch. No bueno.

Any ideas? I'm thinking it's possible one of the parts replaced may be bad, but I'm not even sure where to begin as I'm certainly not an expert by any means.

Thanks,
Kenny
