Pants 0 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 OK here goes, get your head around this one!Your in 5th 3000 rpm. Floor it the revs jump to 4000 then drop back to 3000 when it "grips". After it has "gripped" it will pull hard and take the 190bhp without slipping?Now in my experinace if a clutch is worn and slipping, it will just start slipping at higher revs (where the power is) and slip more and more.If you floor mine at 1000 rpm (no power there) it will slip to 3000 then back down and grip again all the way to redline?I seriously can't get my head around this. If it was a worn clutch it would just slip at higher revs and burn itself out...Any ideas, I know nothing about VR6's as i've only had it a few hours...Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
Eat this 2 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 its torque that stresses clutch/gearbox bugger all to do with bhp mate the vr makes very good toque even at low revs short answer ur clutch is knackered lol Link to post Share on other sites
kilokilla 0 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 i agree any slip would suggest clutch is on its way out your problem sounds like its the pressure plate is failing rather than actual clutch plate but you get all parts in clutch kit so id advise getting new clutch kit fitted mate.
