Can this happen on a selespeed? Anyone else had this? It doesnt do it all the time, but something occasionally does not feel quite right. Any ideas?

In theory it should take longer for the clutch to wear, but yes it can slip.

Click to expand... Normal wear and tear with standard bhp i would say 80 - 90,000 miles on a selespeed maybe more. However if you've got a remapped ecu then more torque on the clutch would mean less mileage before it goes. All this is dependant on driving style as well.
