Struggling with power is not a clutch fault in fact to someone with little knowledge the engine would sound more powerful if clutch is slipping because it would race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon smith Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Struggling with power is not a clutch fault in fact to someone with little knowledge the engine would sound more powerful if clutch is slipping because it would race when the clutch is slipping the power form the engine isnt getting to the wheels so it will struggling to get the power down and will be slower under hard acceleration. if the clutch is slipping so bad that the revs go up but you go slow id get it changed fast.

I know that,you know that but does the OP know that ? by the sound of him it seems as though he doesnt and when the engine races it gives a false impression of power to any one who is a stranger to the fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeX Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 check your oil. some cars use the oil from the engine for the clutch too so if that is old or running low you could have problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
