When you say it won&#039;t drive, will it not go into gear? Will it go into gear with the engine off? We need more details on what exactly it is doing or not doing.<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Snapplecrack:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2016-12-07 18:53:15)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> Goes into gear, wont take off. The inly way the sound doesnt happen is when my clutch is pressed in<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Snapplecrack:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2016-12-07 18:55:21)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> Yes goes into gear with engine off.<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;mtherkamp:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2016-12-08 13:19:12)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> Yep, definitely either a clutch or transmission issue. Have you tried to get it to move in all the gears, ie not just 1st? If it won&#039;t move in any gear, then it pretty much has to be a clutch issue. Regardless you are going to have to drop the trans and take a look at the clutch, pressure plate, flywheel, and throwout bearing.</div>
