Need help please my mazda rx8 was driving so good and one-day i went to crank it drive off and it was like hard to crank the CC clutch when i pushed it in was making a winning noise and would not crank and once cranked it would not work would no go into gear so i push started it and drove it just could not change gears almost new clutch was working perfect please let me know what you guys think

 

Sounds like there is something wrong with either the clutch or the hydraulics in the clutch pedal/slave/master system.

There is a common fault with the clutch pedal bracket fails... and depending on mileage you can have throwout bearing issues as well.

If the car is not running can you push the clutch in and change gears?

 

Yes you can and i had to drive it home so i had push started it in second and just speed shift till i got home it's making winding noise when push in clutch and it's not letting the mother turn over as fast as it suppose too
