The people who crawl under cars to steal catalytic converters discovered there was also a market for valuable carbon fiber drive shafts and stole yours.

Diagnosing and fixing cars sight unseen over the net is really hard. You need to give more background info. Obviously a fried clutch could act like this, but it would be showing lots of symptoms beforehand.

I’m getting a grinding noise, very hard to shift, stiff clutch and I can not get into gear. Is my trans fried ?
