Angry Blew My Clutch

YEP - Tuesday afternoon - 3 PM on the 401 doing 120 - and my clutch goes.

kind of freaky - the cars in gear and revving - but not going anywhere. - the thing that sux is I had NO warning, just BAM and my car was immobilized
crap at least when I blew my motor I drove it home 40 Km (loud as hell but i made it home).

so IT went to Altech tuesday late afternoon - and I had it back wednesday (thanks Joe) - good thin too my damn van cost me $60 in fuel in less than a day.....


ON a good note - I finished paying off my car loan in May - so this is my FIRST car that doesnt have a payment - mind you I am still paying for my 2003 caravan


just though I'd share

Have a nice day all........

Weird...clutches don't really just "go". They generally start to slip long before they are done. I supose something must have broke ??? still weird.
