I have put about 20,000 miles of daily driving on my clutch...I'm somewhat more avid of a driver than most...seeing as those 20,000 have been in the last year.

Anyways...I think my clutch is slipping again..anyone had experiences or can let me know

(haha short story, monday night, two nights ago I was accelerating in fourth rapidly to see if my clutch was slipping...and I got a speeding ticket LOL) doh!

ok so yeah, my first gear locks before I go into it, unless I let the car roll foward or backwards a tad then it goes into gear. My reverse grinds unless I pop it in hard.
the other gears feel sorta clunky and noisy.
and i don't feel like my acceleration is anywhere near what it used to be.

does this mean my clutch is bad? it's a ACT 2600lb installed around may 2005

thanks for any input i'm really concerned for my baby.
peace

I think it pretty much covers everything about the 2600 ..... should keep you entertained for an hour or so ;)

As far as your question though...Can you shift through the gears smoothly with the car off? Have you done all the obvious things like: trans fluid, bleed clutch, shifter cable adjustment, etc?
