Unhappy BIG problem after getting on it.

well here goes. I was on my way to work and decided to romp on the 30th a little. I was rolling about 5mph I pushed in the clutch, floored the throttle, and let out the clutch. The car kind of wheel hopped and hased the nittos a little. I drive one block to my work and shut it off. I leave from work and notice that the car rolled ever so slightly with the clutch in, while in gear. As I shift gears I notice that 1-2-3-4-5 didnt try 6th, are very hard to get in 3rd being the worst. I also notice that when in gear the shifter is slightly looser than it was before all this. Upshifting and downshifting is hard to get in. Clutch doesnt slip at all and no fluid is leaking. Got home and parked it. Next day I see if it is any worse. Cant get into reverse with motor running. but can with it off. Last thing I noticed was when the car it off the left to right detent into reverse is harder than it use to be and kind of has a grooved feel from the detent to the far right of the horizontal movement. Clutch doesnt smell, fluid is full and looks good. I was told the trany is a viper spec T-56 with mcloed single disk. Dont know about the pressure plate and flywheel.

Clutch asts like its not dissengaging all the way.

Please help.

anyone ever had this happen?

not exactly sure but you may have broken a finger off of the pressure plate

continueing to drive it is only going to damage the trans

time to think about a performance clutch upgrade
