Default gearbox or clutch ?????????

right peeps can i pick ur brains had a new clutch kit fitted 2 month back since then a problem has started and it is just getting worse and worse and it goes like this most of the time in fith on motorway or such ill put my foot down to over take the boost comes on revs pic up but no drive it dont accelerate now it started doin it in other gears !!!!!

if its popped a seal and spraying oil then you will notice it coming out of the bellhousing, jack it up and run it for a bit n see if it drips form there....
No need to be in gear or owt as the crank/clutch assembly still spins in the bellhousing in neutral so the oil should be leaking without moving in theory

hope that helps
