#81544, "maybe a clutch problem, i dunno"




          

i have this feeling my clutch is starting to slip, because when i give it almost full throttle or full throttle my car starts to buck and the rpms bounce around like crazy. the clutch has almost 138,000 on it emoji opinions?

I think if you put it in 4th or 5th and floor it and the RPMs spike up, or move up faster than usually and spped doesn't match like it should, then it is probably time for a new clutch.

throw it in 5th at 2k rpms and floor it .. if it slips .. your fucked . I just went through a clutch it sucks. but if the rpms jump up and your mph doesnt increase then your sol.

My clutch slips when i shift from second to third and third to fourth and after a bit of driving it slips in every single gear.

i threw it into fifth from second and floored it and it just bogged down like it should. i can still trip my tires in third gear emoji My check engine light came on today when this happened, and i got two 11s which cannot be good. any ideas on what to try?
