mine started chattering in 1st recently...

The odometer sez 120k but it wasn't really working when I bought it.

I have an invisible brake fluid leak, and I think I let it get a bit too low... I think there might be a bit o' air in there now... at least I hope so.

QUOTE:
If it is slipping a "little"in first gear it would have to be "all gone" in 4th and probably unusable in 3rd gear also. So look at it from the performance end of 4th gear. If you shift it into 4th at say 50 MPH and it takes off and performs normally, you do not have a clutch problem. If however, you hit 50 MPH and put it into 4th gear and all you get is high RPMs followed by a very bad smell, you need a clutch overhaul now!

Is this really true?? this is completely counter to my subaru/nissan/vw clutch experiences.


thx,
Robert
