Surprisingly, I've never had any clutch problems before, but the other day I was accelerating and the revs were going up but the car wasn't going forward in the way it should given the revometer.
I phoned my mechanic and he said it was the clutch slipping and it wasn't an immediate problem, he'd ran a car for 6 months like that.
So, a few days later I'm driving from Inverness, driving up the steep long stretch of the A9 just outside the city heading south and the gears weren't engaging at all so I pulled over and called a tow truck.
I'm guessing I need to have a new clutch fitted, but does anyone think there'll be more damage done?
