Possible To Un-glaze A Clutch?

[Merilious]

So my cltuch has been slipping quite a bit lately, in 3rd, 4th, and 5th mostly. But if the clutch is cold it wont slip, and also if its cold you can even pull the ebrake while stoped, put it in 1st gear and drop the clutch it will hold and bog down the car until it stalls. Once it warms up it starts slipping though. My mechainc told me that its probably glazed over and that if I just take it easy on it for a week or so it will wear off the glazing and everything should return to normal. Is this true or is my clutch screwed for good and I should get a new one put in?

Mine was doing the same thing, first mech said it was fine but i did not agree so i took it back to his boss and he said it was slipping. I got it replaced with a HD exedy cerematalic. maybe you could be rough with it for a week to see how it goes. Dont ride it, just pop it and keep the revs low when taking off.

mine did the same thing, i took it easy for a week and it got better, worked %100 again, but now i think its starting to slip cause of wear:(

it sounds like ur clutch is stuffed or the flywheel needs machining. the flywheel gets low spots in it after a while, therefore creating less contact and it gets hot and glazes up both the clutch and flywheel. all that needs to be done is have about .2mm skimmed off the flywheel. i do them all the time at work, any engineering shop or auto shop will have it done for you.
