larry Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Hi guys I was driving my car and reved it under a bridge with clutch engaged after that the car doesnt want to go into any gear. It does engage in gear whilst car is off, as soon as you start it all you hear is TICK TICK TICK and you are unable to engage into any gear. Has this happened to anyone? P.S. It is not the engine.

larry Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 Someone told me it could be the clutch, as when you press the clutch the sound disappears. Was this also the case with you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayzarh Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Yes, could be the clutch too, but the tell tail sign here is the ticking noise, even if the clutch is gone it should still move, even when i nuked my gearbox i could rev the !Removed! out of it and it would hop about. Eitherway you gotta take the gearbox or engine out. A clutch is a progressively wearing item, you will feel the clutch getting worse and worse. I recently done my clutch. When my clutch was dying, i did one hard pull and an upshift and i couldnt get into gear. It smelt of clutch. I then parked up and switched the car off, had a fight with the gearstick and it started going into gear. When you last drive it, did you feel, at any point of the rev range the car losing power and/or the revs climbing but the speed staying the same?

kayzarh Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 But yes completely forgot to answer your question, the clutch pushed in the car would stop making a ticking noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 Thanks for your reply man, I had the same problem about 2 weeks ago it got stuck in first gear and i drove him in first after that it went into every gear. 1 Week later i revved the car with clutch pressed and that is when i was fighting with the gear stick to engage. No the rev range was fine engine drove as it should it just doesnt want to go into gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
