Hi guys! This is my first car so I don't have much clue at all.
I brought a fiat grande punto in August and only managed to insure it last month so I've barely driven it. Anyway I was in slow moving traffic uphill one day and I was revving the hell out of the car just for it to move forward and it took a lot. It started to smoke I had to get across the roundabout and pull over quickly the smell was awful.
I drove it today for the first time in a while literally a 10 minute drive to the shop and i put some petrol in it and pulling out of the petrol station I stalled three times. I have to lift the clutch up so high and accelerate loads just for it to move off.
The burning smell was back again also just after a small journey
It's going to the garage on Monday and I'm crapping it as I can't really afford to much and have a £500 budget. Do you think it will just need a new clutch?
Thanks
