Hi all.need some advice.my wife was driving my 300 tdi disco and lost drive,not sure what gearbox it is.but reverse is under 5th gear.anyway clutch feels fine,goes in and out of gear,you can also select gear without the clutch (engine running of course).but when you press the clutch down there a horrible grating noise from gearbox.not sure if its clutch or gearbox.first thing I checked was that she she didnt knock it out of hi box.

try engaging diff lock it will rule in/out broken diff ,halfshaft, cv etc,but could also be many other things like clutch failure, g/box ,t/box , you can drian some oil out of boxes and look for signs of failure /contamination
 
That's was one of the first things I did was put it into diff lock still wouldn't drive,sack her sounds like a plan lol
 
There is a plate on the bottom of the bellhousnig you can unbolt, which gives some access to the flywheel
 
Drained the transfer box oil.oil is like new as only changed that 4 months ago.no bits in it
