Sorry to see your having clutch issues. I would say that based on your description it's probably not good. The fluid and throwout bearing would only effect disengagement of the clutch. Without the throwout bearing engaged you should have full engagement, no pedal engagement. I guess it's possible that the throwout bearing is not fully releasing due to a fluid issue but not likely.

Air in the system would not effect engagement. Again, may effect disengagement but not likely.

Are you sure the clutch is slipping for sure? Do you get the smell? The traction control on these cars is very good meaning they jump in quickly. Is the clutch stock or aftermarket?

If it smelled and over rev'ed with no tire spin then your into the clutch. I saw a video one time where they tried to power brake a Vette and the smoke show was all clutch. Rear tires never spun but lots of smoke.
