Pulling into the middle of the road.. slowing down I thought I had not put the clutch pedal down properly as getting it into gear was like trying to push an elephant through a needle.. indicating desire to turn right and sitting waiting patiently was mortified to find that the CLUTCH was utterly useless.. could not move it from neutral into first... So on go the hazzard warning lights.. causing much mahem... Thankfully two young lads pushed me to safety... One of them trying the CLUTCH to no avail... I tried.. nope.. nada.. tried a few more times before ringing the RAC... Mortifiying beyond words because over an hour of waiting the RAC technician had the CLUTCH working straight away and for sure thought me a complete idiot! ~ Drove the car followed by RAC to local Garage and they have come back and said three different people have driven the car.. no problems with the CLUTCH however the Catalytic Converter needs replaced... At the time of the USELESS CLUTCH incident I was concerned because the engine management light had come on again... ~ Could the TWO be related?? I had just bombed down a Dual Carriageway for about 10 miles before this... The Garage Mechanics truly do think I am nuts.. I'm sure my partner thinks I've made it up.. but the CLUTCH FAILED.. simples... Any ideas on this while the Garage fix a new CATALYTIC CONVERTER would be greatly appreciated... Many thanks in advance.. and seriously.. I did not have a psychotic episode but I need to feel safe in my Car as I use it on very busy fast driving roads for work and don't want a CLUTCH Failure again... :)
