Well tonight me and a mate were making the 160 mile round trip to watch our local football team. We took my car which we always joke wouldnt make it but doesnt let me down much. Well this time it did, after about 20 miles sitting in fifth gear we caught traffic approaching a roundabout all was fine for a few hundred metres then i felt a judder on the clutch but i thought nothing if it as afterwards the car drove as normal. About 30 more miles sitting in 5th gear we approached another roundabout and thats when i realused i couldnt get it into another gear after trying to change. We had to abandon all plans and concentrate on getting home. Made it 3 miles from home before we couldnt get the clutch to grip anymore so had to get a tow from my brother.
Now heres what i think has happened, i was driving through very bad rain (like ive not seen in a longtime) and i dont have a flywheel/clutch shield so i think the waters been driving in there. So may need to bite the bullet and buy an uprated clutch, what do people recommend? And what flywheel modifications are needed
Thanks
