Just a cuple of days ago i wanted to run the car in a little, and see what she could do dropping the clucth (as much as i was hurting to do it - i had to try at least once) - i had major slipping 1st - 2nd and even slightly 3rd on my attempt (without properly realising). Right after, the clutch was spongy for about 30 seconds.
When my car was stationary, the smell of the clutch burning was pretty bad.... now a couple of days later, the smell seems to be fading, but is still there slightly - i think nearly gone - theres been no sponyness anymore). I've been driving the car ever since with no slippage on boost, and performaing as it was when i purchased it, with the slight smell here and there.
What should i expect from this? I'll be driving more conservatively now, until i save up for a new clucth - hope she doesn't let go
*note - stock car with just an cat-back exhaust - stock clutch as well i think*
First time this has happened, so im slightly worried.
Any helpful guidence would be appreciated
*forgot to mention - I also tested out the clucth going on a steep hill in 4th gear (approx 40-50km/h) full throttle and there was no slippage*
Cheers,
Steve.
