#5738, "clutch break in"


          

I put a new clutch in my 92 tsi fwd this summer when i had the motor out for a head rebuild.

Im just now getting able to drive it, more than around the block. Ive noticed something weird, the pedal pressure has always been very weak. Im comparing this to a awd that I had. Now I got the clutch from autozone (I know, dumb idea, i just wanted a stock replacement) but anyway this car is not modded really at all.

Ive been driving it for a few weeks now, and it has a couple 200mi on the clutch. I did a pull the other day and I spun tires through first and second, thend in third I got on it, and my rpms climbed, but I went nowhere. I didnt feel the car pull or anything.

My question is, do you think I 1) have a defective clutch, 2) have a non turbo clutch(if it matters) or 3) destroyed the clutch?

I know its hard to say but throw me some ideas.

Ill be honest I didnt really baby the clutch when i started to drive it, but i didnt beat the hell out of it.

Thanks,
