It is awful it has happened, but even more so that you don't know what the problem is yet!

Its got to be clutch, I reckon its started to break up (got the car in the garage, so it does not have to see rain :thumbs:) but when cold it grabbed a little, then after a few seconds later just slipped to a halt. It went up a slight incline though :thumb:

Just want it fixed now. :thumb:
 
Good luck Buddy :thumb:

Im sure as the Guys said it will be the flippin clutch !
 
:yeah:

I hope it's just the Homing Beacon launcher :roll:

Bad luck!

As others have said, more than likely a clutch issue. I would think it is something to do with the mechanism rather than wear. Thrust bearing??

Hope it's a quick, simple and cheap fix!!

FWIW your car still looks fast stood still!!

Nice pics!

This could be related?

I need that game, what is it please :thumb:
 
Any news boba???
 
Got some good news today, it is indeed a driveshaft come undone and fallen off and done some damage to its flange and a pipe that needs to renewed (nothing that 1k can't sort out) what is alarming is that I had a new clutch fitted just 2k miles ago and the other driveshaft was not tightened properly and would also have fallen off in the near future.

I will be speaking to them in the morning :evil: :evil: :evil:

Having a service done, I do every year with my car, none of this 2 year nonsense, and some work done as well, having all new clips, bolts and clamps done, because Porsche made them out of cheese that then rusts.

Nice to know its a Specialist error and not a weakness with our Cars :thumb:
 
Good news boba, it will be interesting to see what your Indy says about it, are they doing the work or is it a different garage??
