Hello everyone, was hoping for some info on what has happened before i have to get the car towed. Car is an 02 VU ss ute 6 speed manual. Was driving home from work, and shifted from 1st to 2nd, after engaging 2nd gear and releasing the clutch, i heard a faint snapping? sound, like a click of the fingers best way to describe it, went to engage 3rd and the clutch felt heavy, and the gearshift would not budge at all, ended up driving home stuck in 2nd gear at 30kmh. If i engaged the clutch rolling it would not release the clutch at all, had to kill the ignition to stop the car when home. With the engine off the gears move in freely with clutch depressed, but not when the engine is running. I had zero warning when it happened, i dont do burnouts or abuse the car in any way, it does have a short shift kit though that was on the car when i purchased it 4 years ago. I cannot see any fluid leaking from the master cylinder, and it is full of fluid. If anyone can give advice if you might have had this problem it would be much appreciated!! Thanks in advance!
