    well FUCK me ;x first of all there was some tranny fluid infront of my house and i swear it wasnt mine cause it looked like gear oil so i ignored it and its been driving great since then

    so about an hour ago im driving over the bridge in 4th, and it slipped out of gear (it did that some times in 4th), so i throw it back in and hit the gas and nothing car revs like its in neutral, does this in every gear, dont have top put the clutch in to change gears (grinds a bit going into reverse). so ya every gear feels like neutral clutch feels like its working but not as much, i have clutch fluid. soo

    wtf

    i think this may be the end

    oh ya i have another tranny in my garage ;) but some1 help

    At a guess, you've had some bolts drop out of the clutch slave cylinder?

    linkage it wouldnt go into gear, and slave cylinder the clutch wouldnt work (and i woulda looked at that...). i think its funner to get guesses, i think we should offer a liscence plate frame to whoever guesses it :)

    a squrel in the exhaust pipe? bad air in the tires?

    so basicly if i read correctly its like your clutch was disengaging the whole time... i wonder what would cause that? Did your slave cylinder get stuck? hydrolics get clogged? too much fluid? wrong fluid?

    geez meph everyone knows rotaries have squirrels in them, and if you find one in your exhaust you blew an apex seal. good thing they upgraded to hampsters for the RX8.
