Broken down....
So Im currently sitting on the A47 inbetween Leicester and Peterborough (if anyone is nearby feel free to come and say hi!
Drove fine all the way up here, left for home then it just didn't feel right...got going and then suddenly Bang bang bang So I pull over and slowly try to engage a gear but just more banging noise, asif the gearbox can't grip the driveshaft. Had a look and the car is covered in gearbox oil underneith :( - gawd knows what happened? So I'm 99miles from home and waiting for the recovery lorry to come and get me (within the hour they reckon) I just hope the driver doesnt smell! Hope my car is ok :( |
There in spirit mate ..... Hope it's not gonna be too costly !!

Right recovery man has been and is sending out a flatbed (why they didn't do that in the first place I don't really know) we popped the bonnet and the cv joint between the gearbox and the driveshaft has (and I quote) exploded. You can grab the driveshaft and move it about, whether or not its done any internal damage to the gearbox I don't know...we shall wait and see.
