Yesterday, I bought a 1987 325is manual with a 2.8L stroker. The slave and master have been replaced, but the clutch hasn't been (235k miles). 4.10 Open Diff. There is a short shifter in it as well.
Tonight, I was driving the car and tried to put it in third but it refused and made a grinding noise and I couldn't shift into any gear. I turned the car off and shifted into 2nd and drove 500yards to get home. It stayed in gear and drove, but I could not take it out of gear. The car shifts fine when it is off. When it is on it will not go into gear, when trying it will make a whining noise. I have tried pumping the clutch with the car on then trying but still nothing. When riding with the PO, he ground the gears a few times.
So my questions is what is broke? lol
Did the clutch blow up on me?
Thanks,
I will be taking it into a shop asap assuming that the fix is clutch/flywheel related
