Clutch is gone, take it to the dealer. Your car has a hydraulic clutch, and the fluid you replaced is likely in something akin to a brake master-cylinder under your hood, correct?

Adding actual fluid to the trans would require crawling under the car, and you'd need to lift it up to do that.

Under-hood addition is to the hydraulic cylinder only. Actual transmission lube would have to be added under the car. You need a clutch replacement, get it in before you need your car towed.

Pretty sure you can get to it on top of the tranny there is a 19mm plug and another on the side of the transmission and it is not for the cylinder! Wow you guys are retards!
