This is the second time in two weeks that I have smelled my clutch burning. Is this a tell tail sign of it going? I have had the car for the last 75k miles and this is the first time this kind of thing has happened to me.
Probably shouldn't listen to anything your penis says, that guy's a dick.
Too much time spent here is a sign of a bad case of Ownaneonvirus.Patience, of course, is a very powerful weapon, but sometimes I start to regret that it is not a firearm.
I will give that a shot after work and let everyone know of the results. Thanks I didn't really know how to test for it other than driving it (I know a lot more on the electronics side of troubleshooting...).Fuzzyneon wrote:if you shift from second gear like 3k-4k right to 5th and gun it do the rpms slip"" like climb ? kinda a generic trick to see if a clutch is slipping but it worked for me.
i was worried my old clutch was giving out and a friend told me to do this it kinda makes sence since if your rpms move to quick when put into 5th its not holding itself.would check all ajustments and stuff to!Dabuh wrote:I will give that a shot after work and let everyone know of the results.

That is exactly what I was thinking. When you say pull the pedal back I assume you mean towards the drivers seat (thats all that makes sense to me). If it is hydraulic then the height of the pedal will still matter? I thought I read a how to on here about adjusting the height that said it didn't matteroccasional demons wrote:Yours doesn't have the cable. Only 2000 model year, and older.
Trouble getting it into 1st, or reverse might mean it is not fully releasing. You cold adjust the pedal first to see if it helps. You will want to loosen the screw under there, and pull the pedal back, and tighten the screw. This will push the slave farther, helping to release the clutch more. The burning may be it constantly dragging, instead of fully disengaging.
I will dig into this tonight also I have the Haynes repair manual so I should be able to find where to check this stuff.occasional demons wrote:Is it slipping in 5th gear when you give it gas? Is the fluid level correct? Or cable adjusted if you have a 2000...

Therefore, it does absolutely nothing as far as how your clutch engages. As said before, the only thing it affects is how far the clutch disengages when the pedal is on the floor.
