    If you smell burning clutch while doing either of these test, then what:confused5::confused5: And if the car rolls to a stop, is that bad:Thumbsup: Then the dealer tells you the clutch is destroyed, that can't be good, except they have nothing to examine:lol:

    Got me there. I mentioned on another forum that I was potentially having clutch issues and he PM'd this info to me. I asked him if it was okay to post on that forum and elsewhere so I posted up on a few different forums hoping it would be helpful.
