When I got home today, I wanted to reverse park into my stall. I was successfully put into R, but when I slowly release the clutch, the gears grind. Instantly, I stomped on the clutch. Put the gear back into neutral, shifted it back into R, slowly release the clutch, and it grind again. I stepped on the clutch again, put it back into N, and let go of the clutch.
Since I was kinda freaked about going reverse, I wanted to see if I could go forward. Clutch in, gear to 1st, slipped right in with no problem. Slowly I let go of the clutch like I always do, car started shaking! I don't think the engine was chocking since RPM was still hanging at around 1K RPM. Tried several times, clutch was only let go a tiny bit, but something in the engine bay shake like crazy. Eventually, I started smelling the fly wheel burnt cuz I've been just sitting there playing with the clutch. Since I wasn't able to make the car go at 1~1.5K RPM, with no one around to help, I simply just gas it to around 2K, slowly let go of clutch, car slowly go with engine bay shaking like crazy. Gassed it to 2.5K, car really started moving a bit faster, immediately I steered into a parking stall, and yeah. I don't think I can make it back to the street. May I ask, all y'all 6gc fellows out there, am I due for a transmission replacement? Or is it just some simple fixes? -------------------- |

Yes but you need to replace the pressure plate and throw out bearing as well as resurface the flywheel too.
