l75eya Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Is it stuck in a gear? Does the car move if you try using the starter? Or does it just click? Jack the car up and see if the wheels'll turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Clutch disc failure? Clutch release finger failure? Two gears at once (bad linkage) will lock up the drive train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
