    So lately I've been noticing that everytime I shift gears and press the gas pedal the engine revs considerably. Especially when its in 5th gear and I'm on the freeway. Well today I was on the freeway and all of a sudden at like 65mph I would press the gas and it would redline and the speed started to Decrease :( eventually the speed decreased to zero... And now I'm waiting on a tow truck. Now I don't even have to press the clutch to put it in any gear. The trucks on and doesn't stall in any gear and won't budge. Is a new clutch in store for me? This sucks btw

    By allowing it to slip that bad you may need a new flywheel also, they don't like heat treating from friction or spinning on disc rivets.

    Hopefully it's not too bad an they can clean it up but don't be surprised if they tear it down and a new flywheel is on the estimate
