    One second im just cruzing along, and the next i have a terrible noise coming from the clutch area, put my foot on the clutch and its as solid as a rock, would not move.

    so its back at the guys that did the clutch a month or so ago and im just waiting by the phone!

    **Edit** The speedo read 200001 when it came off the tow truck

    Apparently something has broken between the clutch slave cylinder and the thrust bearing.

    Should they have noticed it when they changed the clutch? they are trying to tell me that the flywheel and clutch combo i have is to blame....

    im not a happy camper right now.
