Is my clutch slipping?
Hi All...
On a highway trip this weekend, when I accelerated hard in 5th or 6th gear the RPMs started slipping! This is what happened to me many years ago (another car) which had a bad habit of going through clutches (oops).
My TT only has 26K on it and I have never ever dumped the clutch.
Does my clutch need to be replaced? If so, how much?
Thanks as always. meow.

you don't need to dump the clutch all the time to ruin it. Bad driving habits will do ruin the
clutch. Many people drive stick and have no idea that they are very bad at it. Not trying to acuse you of anything, but how sure are you that you're driving skills are not the cause?

Not me!
While I do drive hard sometimes, I really don't abuse the clutch.
Been driving a stick a long time and have a good amount of track experience.
All I can think of is that the clutch isn't handling the extra torque of the Revo very well.
