HELP!!! Scooby wont drive stuck in neutral
I was wondering if any could help me with a problem I have -
I have a worn CV joint which i knew was on its way out, but today when driving I hit a hole in the road and stopped. Then when setting off i went through 1st to 2nd then heard crunch. Now the car wont move when leaving the clutch out in gear, all i get is a tapping (tinging) coming from engine when I let my clutch out and the car will not drive. I have been told by a few different people that it is either the driveshaft, clutch or gearbox If it was the driveshaft shouldn't the other 3 wheels still drive? Any suggestions or help would be appriciated.... Also if its the gearbox does anyone know how much it would cost to replace Thanks Andy |
it sounds like the clutch has gone mate and if so it would be about £220 for the clutch kit plus fitting mate,and that all depends on who you use and how they charge per hour,its about a 3/4 hour job.:thumb:

if it was the clutch, wouldn't you have trouble getting it in gear? i can select all gears. also the clutch pedal has the same amount of pressure (stiffness) as when it was working?
|
As said sounds like clutch is fooked m8

ok thanks for that, i was hoping it would be the driveshaft as its cheapest to repair but looks like i have bad luck

I had exactly the same when I broke a driveshaft (on a FWD car), a clinking noise as the shaft rotated but no drive.
Of course a Subaru is 4wd, but if the centre limited slip diff is fubar (not uncommen) and its a front shaft, then it could still be just a shaft. Look underneath, is one front output spinning when its sat in gear clinking away? if so its a driveshaft. Simon |
no spinning, just a tinking noise from near gearbox, have got it towed to a garage now and getting it looked at. When i know more i will keep informed
|
turns out that the driveshaft has broken inside gearbox. any suggestions or anyone know where i can get a cheap gearbox from? pref a refurb?

cheers mate will look into that, but dont wanna spend too much as she only a sport!
