HELP broke clutch
HELP broke clutch Ok heres the story. I got in my car this morning and drove 30 miles to work. Car ran perfect no noise, no hard shifts or anything. About 3 hours after being at work, i had to pick some stuff up. I got in my car and the tranny was in 1st gear. I pressed the clutch in and started the car. The car kinda made a slight grind noise and tryed to jump forward a little bit when the engine turned over, but once it was running it just sat there like it always does when its in gear with the clutch pressed in. I tryed to put the trans into reverse with no luck. So i tryed going back into 1st gear and it wouldnt do that either. So i turned the car off put the trans into reverse and then pushed the clutch in and started the car. It started makin a real quiet grind noise and a squealing noise also. Then it slowly quit makin the noise. So i backed out and went to put it into 1st and it went kinda hard though. And i started easing out and it started makin a clicking noise and a little squealing too. So i turned it off. I tryed turning it on again and puttin it in gear with no luck. So basically it will drive if i start the car with it already in gear, but it makes noise. I did not get goin fast enough to try and shift to 2nd. So thats where i am now. Someone tell me what part of the clutch is broken. Please help. This is my only means of transportation and really need it fixed soon. Thanks
Update
I was going to show a friend what was wrong with it. But it was working just fine. I started it and put it into 1st with no problems and into reverse with no problems. So i took it for a drive and went through the gears just fine. I even speed shifted into 2nd once to see if i could just break the damn thing and get it over with. But it grabbed like it always does. But on the way back i was shifting to 3rd gear just normally and it grinded so i put into 4th and now it will go into gear sometimes and sometimes not. But when i parked i pushed the clutch in and put it in 1st and it made a noise like the clutch was trying to grab like maybe it wasnt disengaged all the way? i dont know what to do. I might just order a whole clutch kit, wiht pilot bearing, throw out bearing and everything else i can get for it. So that way there will be nothing in the clutch system that isnt fixed.
But i am pissed at my car right now. So i am goin to go mess with it some more and see what happens. Thanks alot guys
