Maybe you burnt it out shifting into 2nd at 5K RPMS. WHY are you shifting at 5K RPMS!? I got a new clutch installed 6** miles ago. And 5k was a round off, its was like around 4.5 or so and it was just one of those times when you want to just get on it. Still, you're shifting at too high RPMs and you're just burning up your clutch. So it's entirely possible that your clutch is going out. When you got it replaced (how many miles ago? 600x?) did you have the flywheel turned? Replace the throwout bearing? What kind of clutch (brand, type) did you install? And who did the work? I found the problem, the cable is worn out way in the back and when I try to put it into a lower gear, something sticks out. I had to go under the car to see it. And my clutch is fine because it grips all my other gears like its still brand new, got my flywheel resurfaced, and got it installed by a friend that owns a car shop. |

Excellent, that's actually great news! So get that cable replaced and you should be good to go! Sweet! --------------------  |
