You wont get any warning lights if clutch gone , did RAC man not check why no drive ?

Hi no before he towed me he drove it forward and reverse and it seemed ok so l had a go but when I joined the the dual carriage way with him following I could only do 50 mph so that’s why he towed me he didn’t seem to have a clue what was up

Hi yeah it drove then but now it won’t lost me to that’s why I’m asking if anyone can answer why this is happening rac man seemed to think clutch would be alright as clutch was fairly new thanks for your reply’s

RAC man talking rubbish . A clutch can fail a lot sooner than two years old and often happens for various reasons . If your car is driving at 50mph and losing power due to clutch slip you would have increased revs and no further increase in speed . If that is not the case , you may have an engine fault that is causing lack of power and if that is what's happening RAC should have scanned for fault codes before leaving you
