OK. I've been lurking around forums for years and got great advice on things but this is the first one I've ever joint so also my first post. Im sure this has been beaten to death in the forum so please point me in the right place.
I had my wife drive my XJ today. She went to put the clutch in at a light. When she did she "heard a pop" and the clutch went to the floor and did not disengage. I came and got her and found I could push the clutch in all the way and use the starter to limp it to the side of the road. I threw it into neutral and started it. When I pushed the clutch in I heard something polishing against something else. Horrible enough description?
I'm mostly wondering if there is a way to figure out what is going on without dropping the tranny. The master has fluid in it but just barely. The previous owner said that he had the clutch done "not to long ago." Could this be a bad clutch install? Throw'out bearing crash? Time for a 2015 F150? Thanks for reading my first post. Feel free to give me crap.
