Clutch pedal suddenly went to floor having previously had no issue. Limped home then replaced slave cylinder and bleed line. However the clutch pedal still goes to floor with little if any resistance. Master cylinder maybe but how to get to it or try bleeding line first. Any ideas please? It's a 2012 C3 Picasso with no previous clutch slipping or selection issues

have an assistant look at the clutch fork while you depress the clutch pedal.
If the fork doesn't move and slave cylinder is good, then master cylinder is next.
Sometimes they break mechanically from the pedal (master cylinder is attached to the pedal on the C3), I can check the Picasso, but they usually follow the C3.
Clutch master cylinder is attached to the clutch pedal on the C3 Picasso (Part 10). A couple of different part numbers appear depending on year.

Thanks for the exploded view of the whole clutch system. Useful
