This was an all of a sudden thing. No grinding gears, sputtering, or missing. Just got new battery day before went for a drive and felt like engine was revving up. Stopped at stop sign and when I put it in 1st clutch went to the floor and gear would not engage.
The clutch is not transferring power to the gearbox, which then is not turning, so that you can select gears without the clutch.Possibilities are
- clutch assembly has failed, possibly by the splined driven plate hub coming adrift
- clutch driven plate has become very worn and has lost contact
- slave cylinder has stuck through corrosion (assuming a hydraulic clutch) and is holding out the clutch independent of the pedal. This can be determined by watching it while someone depresses and raises the pedal.
I think it is unlikely the transmission input shaft has fractured.
Check fluid in slave cylinder if good try bleeding if bleeding doesnt work than need to redo clutch
