Hello,

I would rebleed, but first check the slave and master cylinder, also check the shifter cables, those things can stick and the cable on the inside can rust up as well as the eyelet sockets pop out.

X2 what ECSTuning says!
The trans should het 2 quarts of Redline MTL
The slave and master for the clutch are plastic and wear out! Also check that the brake fluid is up to the proper leven, as the clutch gets it'd juice from the brake reservoir.
