Is my Citroen's clutch gone?
While driving my Citroen C4 1.6 HDi 110bhp last night at 100km/h in fifth the rev counter went max and I lost all power. The engine was still running fine but I rolled to a stand still unable to find a gear without it hitting max revs. The clutch pedal feels fine so I have no idea what is wrong. I can still start the car just won't go. Any help would be great,

Hi Paddy,
This really sounds like a clutch failure. Many cars have hydraulic clutch mechanisms, which is why you may still get the feeling that the clutch is ok. However, it could be that a driveshaft or a part of the gearbox has failed. It's highly likely it's 'just' the clutch though.
Bring the car along to a mechanic to get it checked out.
