Shifting Question, is it normal?

[sasha055]

BTW this is how I tested the clutch.. if anyone have better ideeas please tell me

1. When going 20mph I put in 5th gear and slammed gas pedal to the floor
If the RPM's go high up.. clutch is dead.. RPM's stayed steady.. but my heart rate went to 180.. I was expecting IMS failure
2. While standing put it in 5th gear and slooooooowly depress the clutch.. if car stalls clutch is good

Any other ideeas?


I do plan to change the clutch next year.. justifying 3k expense 2 month after I bought the car to my wife is impossible

Thanks
Sasha
