I was on my way to work one day, i was at a light when it turned green i tried flooring it but it didnt move, there was no tire spin
, but all i could smell was burning rubber so i tried pulling to the right but when i moved my car it wouldnt like speed up i was doing a constant 10 or below mph, so at first i thought my belt had snapped but when i checked under my hood it looked perfectly fine, so not trying to risk my car any further i had my car towed home (i didnt make it to work) so i waited for my bro to check my car, and when he did it would like move now like it was moving normally he even brought it around the block, to me i was surprised, so i tried it and it was driving just fine, im really confused so i need help im thinking of taking it to a mechanic, but i wanted to know if this happened to anybody before? |

A quick way to test the clutch is just to put on the handbreak and relaes the clutch in gear. And then see if it starts to grip and want to move the car. Or i will just start to smell relly bad and the rpm goes up. ( The clutch is not cripping on the flywheel ) My clutch worked fine when it was cold, but when it got heated up it stated to slip.
Hope that helps you out. |
