Ok guys most random thing has happened got in my car and with no warning the gearbox has started to play up now it will select gears then it wont select anything now i have had problems since i owned the car with 2nd and 3rd crunching.

Now wen i changed gear the car judders forward like the clutch isnt disengaging which is making me think thrust bearing and also wen the clutch is down it is making a horrible crunch/grinding noise.

So am i right in thinking its either the thrust bearing or clutch??

cheers damien

i have had it happen a few times, usual symptoms intermitant loss of clutch and grinding noise (the broken spring/springs will rub the clutch cover) usually happens if you dump the clutch a bit too hard:p

hmm well i have a paddle clutch so its on and of lol but i thought if it was the actual clutch then wen i had the clutch down and rev it the noise would get quicker and louder?
