mechanic had to remove transmission to r&r clutch, etc.
requires disconnecting axles from flanges at transmission.
when reinstalling, the bolts that fasten the axles to the transmission flanges have to pass through the inner cv joints.
in the process of passing through the cv they pick up grease and don't hold torque.
as you drive they slowly back off and fall out until only one or two are left.
remaining bolts shear as they are not strong enough to manage the torque transfer from transmission to axle.
axle lets go and bangs around underside of car making lots of noise and doing damage.
flange on that side now spins freely as not connected to axle any more.
given you have an open differential, no load on one side means no drive to the other.
no matter what gear you choose, nothing happens.
