recently my clutch has been acting up and getting worse. it does fine if im driving and not stopping allot but when i go through a drive through or get stuck in traffic it starts releasing when i let up off the pedal even just a little bit. and some time when im driving and let out of the clutch it jerks. the longer i hold it in the less pressure the pedal has. is the clutch going bad or is it a bearing.

 

Sounds like the clutch hydraulics are having a problem. Start by checking the fluid level and for external leaks. If those are good then the master or slave cylinders may be having internal leaks.

 

the fluid level is good and I can't see any leaks. how do u know if there leaking internally.

 

I would lean toward a Clutch Master Cylinder first, The Slave is inside the Bellhousing, Requires Transmission removal...And of coarse Clutch replacement "While your in there".

 

I'm going to replace the master cylinder. will I need to bleed it after?

 

Yes you will need to bleed after install of a new CMC.
