Please help guys! I need to get my car going but I've come to start it and the sodding clutch is stuck. Car has not been ran since September, 6 speed DCCD gearbox and an Excedy twin plate clutch. I've tried starting it in gear but that hasn't freed it
Any ideas guys?
Many thanks,
Paul.

just me

Are you sure its the clutch? Ive had brakes seize before, just needs a few more rpm.

the clutch plates have stuck together mate .this happens when the car is not getting used.only thing you can do is start it up in gear and take it for a drive this normaly works mate

Thanks for the help guys. It really was the clutch that was stuck, attempting to start it in gear resulted in the starter motor smoking like my grandad!
I took the advice from a land rover forum and started in fourth with foot firmly on the brake, snapped straight out and now the car is ready for its garage date with Alan Jeffery
