sure

I just gotten my brakes changed, my car was running as usual until I was coming back from the shop. I could not put it in any of the gears unless I turned the car off and even then I had to force it in. When the car is on, I cant even do that, and the gears grind if i try and put it into reverse. and it was working just fine earlier

1st thoughts would be check ur clutch fluid. if its empty, prolly gonna have to replace ur clutch master cylinder an slave unit.

2nd: might be a cracked pressure plate (happened in my teg)

3rd: if its jus when ur moving, could be syncros.

hope its one of those, cuz then its not TOO bad.

I called that shop that did my brakes, they said "Sorry, I dont know what to tell you dude". assholes. anyway, I had it towed to AAMCO and they hooked it up to the machine and told me that I had no clutch left, that it was completely gone!! And that there are going to charge me $480 labor alone and $325 for a stage 2 clutch. I told them no, I"m not paying $800....something for a freakin clutch when I cand have it done for around $3 or 4 hundred, labor included. So thanks for all your help, everyone, it sucks not being able to drive, damn. c-ya later.
