    Driving home, clutch starts to feel a bit stiffer then usual.
    Soon started to get hard to put it gear, fine ok....
    at a light, can hardly get it in gear, I manage to, and when the clutch is depress while it is in gear it making a really loud rattleing noise.
    I can hardly get into second, now when the clutch is depressed while in gear, the loud rattling suddenly stopped, and now its a really loud grinding/whining sound when the clutch pedal is depressed. I managed to get it home without using the clutch and by not stopping. (lol)
    Now my car is sitting in the parking lot. It makes a slight wooshing sound at idle now. (it started making a wooshing sound while driving a couple months ago, only while moving).

    The clutch pedal is now stiff, and will not go into gear.

    Clutch pedal depressed really hard gives a nasty scraping/squeeling sound.

    Just in time for may long!

    Now i neeeda somehow fix this ****ing thing before the weekend.

    Idea's? So basically the clutch wont disengage.
    Maybe the presure plate binded? release bearing? slave cylinder?


    thanks...

    Check the fluid first, maybe it all disappeared?
    Shouldn't just let go, blammo, all at once, unless it just shattered in a bunch of pieces or the springs went, etc.

      After you check the fluid, you may want to get under the trans and bleed the hydraulic system.

        fluid is fine.

        Like I said, i heard a loud ticking sound when the clutch was depress while in gear. That stopped and then it immediatly started squeeling.

        The clutch is not releasing now.
