Need Help - Clutch Issues
So I have had the car for 2 years now...everything was fine until I left on Deployment and ex-wifey decided she would teach herself how to drive my car...among many things the clutch was the first thing I notices was fubar'd. I could tell it was slightly glazed but no prob a week of "correct driving" would fix that...and yup it did. But after getting my oil changed which they do allot of weird **** under there like messing with the tranny...I noticed going from a 35 to a 55 mph zone that when I gave it gas it would spike 500-1000 rpm's before gripping. Now about 2 weeks later it is too the point that I can barely even give the car any throttle above 2nd gear. First still grips like a champ so does second but 3rd, 4th, and 5th (after already in gear) slip with even 1/4 throttle not even that some times. I just ordered a stg 3 clutch but was wondering if you all think there could be a crack in the case or if the clutch is just going? Opinions? Please...this really sucks...
Anyone?
