Clutch slipping

when im driving,
lets say im in 4th gear, i put my foot down to overtake a car the rev's jump up and then drop down then power kicks in and i can overtake..
i think its the clutch slipping, is that a symptom? i dont have the money to replace the clutch as of yet, will it last? what will happen if the clutch dies?

Yes you have the money go to http://ultrarev.com and it should last. If your clutch dies it won't move. So go head and replace your clutch.

It sounds like its slipping. It will slowly get worse and worse. The more it slips, the faster it wears out. If you can avoid it slipping you can make it last longer, but if it gets bad enough your car would barely move lol.

A simple check is put it in top gear with the handbrake fully on and with a bit of acceleration slowly let the clutch pedal out. If you can release the pedal without stalling the engine is a sign the clutch is slipping.

yes its slipping, mine is doing the same....

you have to avoid doing hard accelaration overtakes and things like that. be gentle with your right foot.

u can drive normaly but dont do many overtakes.
