\*\*Description of problem (please be as in depth as possible):\*\*
So this morning (mini was frosty) i tried starting the engine. It started after a few attempts, so i put it into reverse and my mini starting driving by itself!
As soon as i took my foot of the brake it starting reversing really fast (alot faster than usual) and i couldn't control this by the clutch. Then when i tried changing the gear it stalled!?
I started it again and put straight into first gear and it did the same, went forward really quickly and i couldn't change gear because it stalled!
I am planning on selling it because it has been too unrealible for me, but it is getting rather expensive and frustrating!
I've had quite alot of problems with it, fixed them, then something else goes wrong.
Thanks for reading.
Chloe.
\*\*Any non-standard parts that might be involved with the problem?\*\*Is there any clutch fliud? Sounds like the clutch itsn’t operating.

I’m not sure… where would i look to check this?
It’s really hard to change gear sometimes which makes driving it quite dangerous!
you shouldnt drive it if its doing that.
clutch fluid tank is under the bonnet, drivers side at the back, should be a bakedbean can type thing with a pipe coming off the top and a cap on it. (there may be 2 depending on the age of the car the other is for your brakes). check that for fluid.
