If you drive it will end up leaving you stranded.I agree with the other poster to get it changed about $600 to do it yourself about $150

There are three wearing components in a clutch. There's a disc, a flywheel and a throw-out bearing.
Generally speaking, when the throw-out bearing goes south, things start sounding bad and this is usually the component that is responsible for the clutch working badly. Sometimes it stops working altogether. It's rare that a clutch plate (disc) becomes unrivited, but I have seen it.
Depending upon your particular clutching style, you can wear out a clutch very quickly (within 10 to 30,000 miles), or very slowly (mine lasted 237,000 miles).
A clutch is a bear to replace and is best left to a pro who does it all day long and has the equipment to do it easily and properly.
Even though the cost of the clutch parts isn't that much (I'd guess less than $100), the labor involves removing the engine or the transmission, and can get pricey.
From now on, use your brakes to slow the car down instead of downshifting through the gears. Brakes cost $60, the fellow above said you'll pay $600 for a clutch. That doesn't surprise me.

Dear madam or sir;
It sounds like you own a Iroc or some type of bowtie. If you have an Iroc you probably have some type of Lt1 motor in it. These motors make good horsepower and you would want a good clutch the handle the power. Ram makes a good clutch and has many stages of clutches the handle your driving needs. Remember that the clutch is the only thing that transfers power from the engine to the transmission, if you drive it long enough it will ruin more than you need to. clutches range in price of 250.00 to 900.00 dollars. So how much is your baby worth.

If it still moves your OK. You are on the hairy edge however. If the entire clutch facing goes away you'll not only be replacing a clutch but a flywheel too.

if the clutch will not engage it will not go. if it will not disengage you can start it in gear and drive if you can shift without a clutch. if it is only slipping, use the last few miles it will go to get to a shop and save yourself a tow bill.no way of knowing a cost with no vehicle information.

it all depends on how bad the clutch is and how far you intend to drive it.
the price can vary from one place to another so you would need to do some shopping around,also it would make a difference if it is front wheel drive or rear wheel drive

Year, make and model of car would be some very needed information to answer this question!
FWD, RWD, 4WD, AWD?
Ok is also a relative term. Ok compared to what? Not working like brand new or okay compared to not being able to drive?
