I have a 1999 crv honda, it burnt a clutch and I had it replaced but it still doesn't take gears but when the gear is on neutral it moves forward as if it's on gear. Please help on what could be wrong
It started by making noise but as soon as the clutch is engaged it stopped making noise

When starting in gear there is a switch , controlled by the front brake lever to avoid over revving, make sure the front brake lever is fully applied when starting in gear , if the engine starts to run rough disengage the brake lever fully, if rough running continues then likely switch needs replacing/servicing
indicates a problem clutch master cylinder or failing clutch cable which ever your car has
take it to a clutch and brake specialist for a proper diagnosis and quote
the fix is a new clutch master cylinder or clutch cable
I think could two things.
1. A sticky clutch from being used for awhile. Are you starting it in gear with the clutch in or in neutral then engaging first.
2. You might need a slight adjustment on your clutch. Particully if there doesn't feel like much tension on the clutch lever.
Are you sure you have all 4 forward gears? Most of the time a no reverse condition also means 1st and 3rd only.No 2nd or 4th.If you dont have all the forward gears as i suspect , the reaction shell is stripped or broken.If you do have all the forward gears then these are the two most common reasons you do not have reverse.1 reverse input clutches are damaged or burnt 2 forward cltches have slipped to the point they are welded together causing a mechanical bind in reverse and also causing the transmission to pull forward in neutral.Let me know if i can help.Good Luck.
Sounds like a clutch problem to me.
So, with the engine off, can you select all gears? If yes, your gearbox is probably OK.
And now with the engine idling, can you select any gears with out crunching? If this is difficult, then try this next test in an area where movement forward or backwards won't be a problem.
With the engine OFF, foot ON the clutch, the handbrake OFF, and in 1st gear, start the car. BE READY TO TURN IT OFF.
If the car moved forward as you cranked the engine, then your clutch is not adjusted properly or has worn out. That is more-than-likely the smell you got before - burnt clutch disc from it slipping.
You can drive it, but every time you want to start off, you'll have to turn the engine off, select 1st then start the engine. Accelerate slowly, making sure the revs don't rise faster that you're speeding up, and change gear by judging engine revs between gears.
Don't keep driving it as it is, as you WILL have gearbox problems if you don't fix the clutch.
check transmission fluid make sure its not low.if fluid looks black and smells burnt.change transmission fluid and filter.if you already change fluid and filter.your transmission manual valve out of adjustment.or you have faulty oil pump and worn over drive with a damage roller clutch.also forward clutch has worn or burned clutch plates damage piston or seals.
