Hi guys what are the common symptoms of a clutch slipping.
I only as as when I accelerate in 5th from about 60mph it will start off fine then the revs will increase at a faster rate than my speed, then it dipsback to normal after a second (if that makes sense) could this be a sign ofthe clutch slipping.

Thanks

 

Yes, that,s the symptoms of a worn clutch. It will gradually get worse. Steve.

 

Yep time to start looking for a new clutch may take a while before it needs replaced tho

 

it will gradually get worse my friend. no pull in 5th, then 4th, then 3rd. replace before you wear it down to the studs

 

I didn,t replace my slipping clutch for a couple of months because of work commitments but did get pi##ed of with the slow acceleration, so I fitted uprated Excedy clutch at first opportunity. Steve.

 

Time for a NEW clutch I think, accelerate hard you will and go forth you won't. Had the same problem and was quite annoying, must fit a quaillity clutch though. Good luck.

 

thanks guys, the car is under 1 month warrenty with the garage i bought it from. I guess its thier problem to sort out.....

 

hope its a good warranty, alot dont cover the important things and clutch is a wear and tear item, fingers crossed for ya

 

Ive only had the car 2 days, and the garage owner seems a genuine chap. I wont be impressed if he doesnt replace it...

 

if only owned for a couple of days a decent chap would honour it yes, so get straight round again

 

Good news this morning Garage has said they will change the clutch for me. Dont know if i would be pushing the boat out if i asked him to fit a Exedy Organic Clutch. !!!!!!
