Forever in Nuetral....

[bdawg46]

Hello, my 240 has a problem that im not sure wut it is. The car starts up fine and all works great. The clutch was slipping so i just replaced that. Now when i drive around for a little while, after about 15-30 mins it just stops. Not the engine, the engine is still runnin but i cant go now where... every gear is nuetral it seems like. It just revs the engine, i cant even reverse. So after a little while i start back up the car and i can move again... but then afta another 15-30 mins the same thing happens. It seems that when the engine is cold or just started it seems to run fine and clutch is strong, but after a while, once the engine gets warmer and hotter, it just fails... ANY help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

Clutch hydraulics or a bad clutch job is my guess, did you do the clutch yourself or a shop?

[deftdrummer]

maybe a bad transmission? how many miles are on your car?

[bdawg46]

210k miles on it, i shop installed it, but then i went to a clutch shop today and they guy said there were air bubbles in it and he says it happens all the time, didn't even charge me for it! Only thing it cost me 90 bux to get it towed... but i drove it and it works fine now, thx for ur input nonetheless.

90 bucks for a tow to get your lines bled, what a rip =(

Yeah well... they couldnt tow it cuz its RWD and the car is to low ot tow the other way, so they put it up on a flatbed, plus they said they would come right away, and i didnt really want to wait for someone else, so its all good i guess.
