    mm that sounds bad, try turning your car off and putting it into 1st or 2nd and then starting it. Did you hear any weird noises when it stalled?

    its all fixed now...
    i called road-side assist to tow my car to honda, then they gave me a loan car
    apparently the manufacturers left a clamp in my gearbox and it slipped in, thus blocking 1st and 2nd gear... but no mechanical faults

    dodgey as ****kkk

    Yeah, note that down and give them hell for it if your drivetrain plays up again. Leaving things in ur gearbox... that's not on.

    why would they even open it/operate on it for anyway
