hey all

I own a 03 BA XR6 turbo, 5 speed manual, just clocked over 82000Ks.

Recent times when diving iv noticed my clutch is grabbing right at the top of the pedal insted of downnear the floor. Also iv noticed that say im cruising in 3rd or 4th and I put my foot down to speed up, the car will rev out and not find the gear properly insted of just picking up speed.. like my clutch is slipping..

can anyone help with this??

is there any way to adjust the clutch??

is it normal after 82000ks for a clutch replacement??

all help is appreciated!!

I can say that I replaced my standard on on a T56 which I dont think is much different if at all at $98,000. It all depends on what kind of life the clutch has had, if its been thrashed and restepped alot. Ive noticed this now again with my new XR, also a T56. But its also got 310rwkw. Its like you put your foot into it in higher gear and it revs out but doesnt gain a speed level as would be expected from that gear? kinda like a commodore, all noise but no go?

To my knowledge, you can't really adjust the clutch.

82000ks! :3gears: I'd say you've had a pretty good run out of a standard deal.

There's really only one answer.....Mal Wood Option 3 :dontknow:

One of the best mods Ive done to my car, Mal has these running behind 350+rwkws with no probs....softer pedal than stock too. :dontknow:

I can say that I replaced my standard on on a T56 which I dont think is much different if at all at $98,000.

That's either a good run from a stocker (98000kms?)....or you've been severely ripped-off :buttonit:
