Hey guys,
My car is currently on my driveway and won't move. Yesterday, I drove the car right onto fresh snow, and I think I might have planted the rear wheels into a small snow spot. Whenever I try to reverse, my wheels just spin. I'm fairly certain that it's probably because I have normal tires, as opposed to Winter, but I didn't expect it to be this bad. When I switch it to reverse (or even drive), the car starts making a clunking sound, before proceeding to spin. I've tried putting some sand under the rear wheels, but it doesn't seem to work. The weird thing is, when I actually look at the rear wheels, you can hardly even see its in dugout, i would say about 1-1.5 inches tall. Any suggestions?
I forgot to mention, this same thing happened previously, and the car performed normally in between. So I'm hoping it's not the transmission.
