ok soo i have a 97 hyundai tiburon 18L base model manual and i was driving down the highway one afternoon and the clutch was slipping extremely bad to hold 60 i had the car reved at 4-5 rpm and once i hit a bump in the rod i felt the car jerk and the gear was in and my car was acting normal also once the car was in gear and i had to down shift the clutch didnt respond at all and the gears wouldnt move not even to grind and then i pulled over and turned the car off and restarted it i was able to put it in gear without the clutch but it didnt grind or move what does that mean whats wrong and what could i do to fix it and how much would it cost to fix at a shop???

What, are you kidding me? You drove it into the ground when you know you had a bad clutch and then you drove it with no clutch? . Plan on replacing everything now, including the flywheel. I wouldn't be surprised if you damaged the transmission too.

Clutches don't fail that way. They give you plenty of warning. They will slip when shifting gears and start catching higher on the pedal as it wears out.

That's for the tech that repairs the car to determine but it wouldn't surprise me..
