Clutch

Asked by ElPuto69XIX Aug 26, 2009 at 02:13 AM about the 1996 Mazda MX-6 2 Dr STD Coupe

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I recently had a Clutchmasters stage 1, and a Fidanza light-weight flywheel put on my car (too lazy to do it myself) and at less than 13,000 miles later, its already slipping... I was told its most likely the pressure plate has gone bad, is it possible I got a dud, or did the shop screw me?

I beleave that your buying a high proformance clutch you have to run at higher rpms and that its made for proformance not everyday driving.

If you have been racing then you can blame yourself. If you have been driving normally then maybe the clutch was defective. In any case you need a new one.
