>> Alright check this out guys....I'm out of town right now and last night right when i got there my celi just went out on me. here's what happened. While i was driving (at about 65mph) the car just stopped pulling...i thought i came out of my gear somehow so i checked and tried to press the gas again. the engine reved but nothing happened...so i coasted all the way to the paring lot i'm in now....The car will crank and idle...but when i ****f into the gears and try to pull of nothing happens..


need some advice peeps...can't be stuck in this town till monday

Sounds like it might be your clutch. Were there any funny sounds or smells from your engine bay or anything? If not then it's probably your clutch.

nope...there weren't any funny sounds or smells coming from the car...from the people in this town i've heard severall different possibilites for what's wrong...we still haven't figured it out yet...it's still cutting on, but shifting the gears does nothing...thanx Coomer

Does the car jump and stall if you attempt to start it up in gear, if not I tend to
agree with coomer..

not sure...it's always in neutral when i start it up....

CAN YOU SAY TRANSMISSION. DUDE sorry it suck mine went out and all i had was reverse. I was like wonder if I can drive hom 10 miles in reverse lol YEAH RIGHT!

damn!!....yeah this does suck...i gotta get it fixed tomorrow morning...and my house is about 38 miles away... i hope it's nothing major

I hope its somethign small but, dude it doesnt sounds good. Look at it this way at least its not lowered and you can get it on a roll back.

does the clutch pedal have any pressure in it? if it just hits the floor then it's definitely your clutch, but yeah it sounds like something is wrong with your tranny >>

hey you're right about that one Jason...it was a slow process getting her on the truck as it was.. just got back in town not too long ago..I checked the pressure in the clutch and it basically feels normal to me.. The guy at the shop checked that as well...But he wasn't very sure either... >> ...i miss my ride already

try your tranny fluid... you might be out...

Me and my friend where out of town a couple of years ago in his piece of **** olsmobile 98 and his tranny went out... only had reverse... we got out and jacked the car up and took the rear end off and flipped it over... took about 2 hours but we where stranded... Once we bolted it on upside down we were able to drive in reverse... where moving forward because we flipped it over.. could only get to about 30 mph but it got us to to nearest town.... you guys should of seen the mechanics face when he finally figured out what we had done... straight up KODAK moment... god that was funny........sorry spaced off there.

It really sounds like your clutch or trans is gone... probably will need to replace it.. don't pay for a rebuild kit there junk for the 6th gens.

bummer, i already had to have my tranny redone..... not fun.... atleast it was under warranty.

thanx for the help guys...I'll be able to find out what's really wrong with it sometime tomorrow. i don't see it being over $300 whatever it is...but that's still more than i wanna pay righ now..

Miz,

Whats the diagnosis, was it clutch, master/ slave cylinder?
Nothing worse than getting an expensive surprise like that,
with christmas coming up!

okay here's the thing...i couldn't even go in reverse..no gears were working. The guy at the shop told me my right axel was broken and that was replaced. it was about $200 for that stuff then since i was out of the city towing was an extra $300...I got her out wednesday so now i'm back on the road..i'm just glad it was nothing really major...

well at least you can drive you car....

yep...i just wanted to get my girl back on the road again....i hate having to bum rides

I was going to say CV but I got in a little too late. Close enough to the axel though
