Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Clutch??

gaoife · 2010-02-03 09:43:34

Hi I have a 96 celica and i think the clutch is going. When i've changed gears it's takes a few seconds to pick up the new gear, kinda feels like driving an automatic? Then the revs are jumping slightly. Does this sould like the clutch to anyone? and if so what kinda price am i looking at for a new one? Thanks

Sounds like the clutch is slipping alright.
Try taking off in 2nd gear with the handbrake on full - if the car stalls, then the clutch might be ok. Otherwise, what will probably happen in your case is the engine will run, but you will have no movement. Any smells evident, btw?
