Technical Reving problems

[StefC]

Hi Guys

I have a coupe 20 16v turbo
when Im in 4th or 5th gear and floor the car, it seems to ride on the clutch.
In the first 3 gears it OK.

Is this turbo lag or is something wronge.

Please help:worship:

sounds like the clutch is slipping - do the revs rise, but the car does not accelerate?

Hi NigelO

Yes the revs climb and the car does not speed up.
but its strange that it does it only in 4th and 5th gear

yeah its the clutch some times when the clutch first starts to slip it only effects 4th or 5th it will get worse in time and then it will happen to all the gears..
