Clutch problems?

Hi guys

 

I’ve just pulled up in my 300 and as I came to a slow there was a little smoke coming up from the engine bay up by the windscreen. As I dipped the clutch the clutch pedal hesitated to return to it “off” position. I then reversed back into a parking space and I couldn’t disengage the clutch and had to stop the car by turning the engine off and brake (before hitting the car behind me). I had notice the clutch slip on the way up to my destination. There is also a puddle of clear oil forming under the car, not much but enough to have me worried.

Does this sound like the clutch has gone or something more sinister? I had the gearbox out a few thousand miles ago and there was loads left in the clutch.

 

Cheers,

Chris.
