[QUOTE="MikeyEl, post: 841513, member: 12238"] I was going to move my car out from the snow today b/c my moms fiance just packed his sh** and drove to Tennessee and the car i DD is his, he took the title with him so i figure he'll be coming back to get it at some point. He can have it, it's a piece, but that's beside the point. So i'm trying to get the car out digging the snow away and such i get in and am trying to as gently as possible get it to move because our driveway heaves during the inter and the rear tires are basically in a hole with a little snow and puddles beneath them. So i'm being as gentle as possible but my clutch was in the process of dying so i had to get it up to like 3000 rpm before it would start to roll, whenever the tires started spinning i would let off and i was really just trying to get it to rock back and forth to get out while someone pushed. I did this for about 5 minutes then all of a sudden i hear a thunk and the car dies, won't get out of gear, and won't start. I think I killed the clutch. I know i probably did something really stupid but with the things happening right now i've been stressed out and i probably should have thought it through more before trying to move it.. Anyway, I'll have it moved to a shop and if it isn't worth it to fix whatever happened i'm going to buy a new car.
