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,

Ummm...your original post said that your clutch was slipping with the clutch fully disengaged.

Now you’re saying that it slips with the clutch pedal fully disengaged. Those are two polar opposite things and your current issue would not be caused by hydraulics.

Take it back apart...
