Hello everyone, im new here Just thought I'de ask for some help from you guys before I blindly go an try to trouble shoot the problem myself in the garage:

last thursday, my car's trans stopped being responsive. I had a new clutch and flywheel installed less than a year ago and the car worked fine. After a couple months, steering wheel vibrations would occur ONLY if I was turning with the car in gear (as opposed to just turning with the forward momentum, and the car in N). So I was at work, went to lunch no problem, then as I was parking the car, the trans stopped working.

It will idle fine, but the second i slip the clutch past a certain point, its like if i would have depressed the clutch all the way in, and the car stops moving. If i keep slipping the clutch past that point and give it some gas... you can sort of hear some contact trying to be made in the trans, and a loud sort of muffled sound comes from within the engine bay.

im gonna check the tranny oil which was replaced less than a year ago, but other than that im thinking that the shop i took it to last time didnt do the best job of installing the parts in the fist place, because I didnt beat on that clutch at all, and theres no reason why it shouldnt be working now.

-any help is appreciated.. thanks.
