How can I tell if my clutch is on it's way our or is it just slipping. Is there any adjustment you can do on the clutch. I can pull off in 2nd and 3rd no probs without any slip but when i'm driving normally and hit around 5000 rpm it slips in 3rd and 4th.

sounds like your clutch, dont believe there is adjustment, as its fluid fed not cable, i think (poss totally wrong)

to tell if you clutch is on the way out, is if its ok its good, if its not its fcked :lol: :wink:

yep, its dying alright. Unless for some reason your leaking oil onto it, but thats unlikely.
Your extra power is killing it mate.

Make sure your clutch fluid level is ok. Fairly sure it'll be the clutch tho. Is the bite point high?

of u got a boost controller a good test would be to turn it down to the lowest boost possible and see if it slips the same as high boost cos my clutch works great at my lowest boost but at one bar it starts to slip

O.K lads, When i put my boost back to normal my clutch does not slip but it does at 1 bar so is there a way round this but I would like to stay at 1 bar :D

He's right, it's uprated clutch time! You now need to choose between organic or paddle. I've got an organic and at 1 bar it's been fine (kiss of death :? ). Paddles are a pain in the a*se if you drive in traffic much.
