Right tonight I put it in first and accelerated away got to about 10mph then the car just revved. So I pull over and try again car goes into all gears but won't move the speedo goes up as if the car is moving. Anyone help me. First thought is driveshaft has popped out. It's a ph1 172

Sounds like a clutch to me mate

 

[leemckew]

Even if the clutch had went would it not still go into gear and move

Possibility the differential circlip has popped out

 

[Matt 200]

Depends if the friction plate is totally fucked! Also check your selector cables on your gearbox!
obviously car not running! get a mate to work the gears inside car while u look to see if they are doing anything on top of box

The car is going into gear it's just not moving you can hear everything spinning just the driveshaft aint moving.

See I thought the circlip as well

Lol at clutch, 100% circlip

 

[Budgie]

Lol at clutch and selector cables.

Dif circlip. Definitely.

 

[MartinR]

Yep the circlip has s**t itself

 

[leemckew]

Guessing its just a simple put it back in place if its not damaged or could the housing for it be fooked

 

[Joe R26]

Can try but more than likely it'll pop out again

 

[Dan@SJM]

or it couldve broken up and fallen inside the box.

 

[leemckew]

Think I have found the problem

 

[leemckew]

Does anyone know the part number for these
