Hello guys, I am a new guy here and i am looking for some advice with a problem I am having with my 93 SC300.

I was driving one day, and out of the blue, my car started making these funny noises when I put my foot on the gas. I noticed that it was harder and harder for me to move (my foot will be al the way down on the gas and I would be going 40 up a hill.)

it was cold outside adn I figured it was acting up because I didn't give it time to warm up so I disregarded it.

The next day, the problems continued. They went away for like 5 mintues and I was able to drive my car normal.

The next day I tried to test drive it, and now I can't get the car to move.

I figure it's some type of clutch/tranmission problem, but I don't know what.

I would like to have SOME idea of what it is before I take it to get it fixed so I don't get hoosed.

What kind of funny noises? Try to describe them.
Does it not move but the engine revs?
The last time when you test drove it, did the engine turnover?

okay, not really funny, but loud.

You could hear the engine overworking. Imagine revving all the way up and going 40 MPH, that is what it was like.

Right now, if i started my car, the engine would rev, but the car won't move, well it's a stick so it will roll, but you know what I am saying.

The last time I drove it, I didn't have a problem with the engine turning over. It's been a month, and I tried to start it up around a week ago and it wouldn't cut on, but the battery is brand spaking new, I tought that was odd, however it is the winter, it probably just needs to be ju mped.

are you in too high of a gear on your way up?

I'd say it's most likely your clutch.
The clutch sticks a bit better when cold, then you warm it up a bit and it doesn't wanna grab at all.
Take it to a local tranny shop.
They'll tell you if it's the clutch or not, but I'm pretty sure.
