Sounds like your clutch is gone. You can inspect the clutch by checking the wear indication inside the inspection hole in the bottom of the bell housing (see Clarks Garage for info). Also if it's a rubber centered clutch, pieces of the rubber will be inside the inspection hole. Use your finger inside to find pieces of rubber.

Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

The 944 turbo shouldn't have a rubber centered clutch but I agree, it sounds like something is wrong in the clutch area.

The little springs in the clutch disc can fall out and jam things.
