I have a 96 audi quattro 2.8l, I was driving the other day and I went to take off, the clutch felt like it wasnt engaging as quickly as it usualy does, then I pushed in on the pedal and it was sticking a little bit off the floor, then I pushed it in to stop at a light it wouldnt let me shift into gear, I looked at it for a while and discovered that if I hold the shifter almost in first it will slowly start to go and then I can put it into gear but it seems the clutch is stuck engaged and the pedal isnt doing any thing, I was wondering what broke so I can fix it?

You're going to damage your transmission driving it that way. You have a problem with the clutch hydraulics, probably a leak in the master or slave cylinders. Get that resolved before you turn it into megabucks.

I havent seen any fluids leaking anywhere and I have looked. And I kno itll ruin the transmission I just noticed the car started rolling foward when I attempted to shift into gear thus I figured the clutch was stuck engaged. How would I cheak to make sure the its one of the cylinders before I buy the part for no reason?

You either have a leak at one of the components or a bypassing master cylinder. You're not looking for actual liquid, just a moist spot at the back of the slave or the master.
