Hi,

4-6 seconds with the Clutch partly engaged at 4k RPM? What on Earth would possess you to do this? 6 seconds is an eternity.

If you did this consistently, it's probably your Clutch Disc, T/O Bearing and Pilot bearing and I bet you have Hot-Spotted the Flywheel, requiring it's replacement as well. This is likely to cost you BIG!!...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
