considering they are paying for everything and there were 2 times someone was with me to witness the shop…the side u are reading is what happened…and like i said numerous times i doubt they did anything intentional and i dont think this sort of thing happensoften for them, but they screwed up and they are fixing it. ---

> [@vq30de](#): > > :tup: to the stripemobile running again well i got it back, it drove amazing for the first few miles…now…something is slipping…for example…i was in 3rd at 2500rpm…put the pedal to the floor…the revs go WHAAAAA but the car barely accelerates…the revs will like hit a wall and the car will take a few seconds to catch up with the revs…almost as if there is bad traction on the ground…but…there isnt…is this the clutch?(i hope not considering it is BRAND NEW ---

haha the mechanic told me it drives great so feel free to pound on it :bloated: but i didnt know it needed a break in process…i jsut thought it would wear in after a whie…so is this normal for a new clutch? or what do i do…it is HARD as a mofo to depress btw ---

> [@K Cuv](#): > > so is that the problem (clutch)? will it stop doing that after a while if i dont beat on the car for a while?..i mean wasnt touching the clutch while this is going on…just from a low rpm roll and then wide open throttle it just revs really high then whines until the car catches up with it if it is the clutch that is slipping, i might be ruined. it could also be that the throwout bearing or actuation arm is sticking, preventing the clutch from fully engaging. You really arent supposed to pound on a new clutch for 1000 miles or so… Definitely stop doing that right now and DONT launch the car on a new clutch ---

yep they replaced EVERYTHING disc, pressure plate, pivotball, throwout bearing, etc. etc. how long would it have taken to get ruined…i drove it normal for 10 minutes (from the mechanics to work) unless they were “testing it out” [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/i-want-to-scream/2143.md?page=6) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/i-want-to-scream/2143.md?page=8)
