I'm telling you, this week is just going get better and better. Get this!!!!
This morning, I leave my house at 05:00 to go to work. I get about a mile and a half from my house when I turn right on to an open stretch of highway. I shift from first to second, second to third, i put the clutch in and tried to shift into fourth...........the gearshift didn't go into fourth.......I put the gearshift back to neutral.....took my foot off the clutch.....the clutch pedal stayed on the floor!!! I used my foot to pull the pedal off the floor thinking that the floormat was caught on the pedal. The floor mat was free and clear. The pedal then came up a little bit, but with little to no resistance from it. I pulled over to the side of the highway. With the clutch all the way in, it was still not enough to disengage the trans so it would not shift between gears without rev matching. Bottom line: Clutch broke, car no move!! While similtaneously banging my head against the steering wheel and calling Leo for a tow, I thought to myself.........has anyone had anything like this happen!! 4200 miles and stuff like this is going wrong!! So two and half hours later we finally get the fast to the dealership and all checked in. They said they would call me at about two or three this afternoon!! So I guess we'll see and I'll let all of you know what they say!!!
This is the first day in five months that I've been separated from my Fast! (sniff sniff) But I guess all Fast's have to go the doctor once in a while, huh?!?
