Im not really sure what either of you meant but to test your clutch for slipping put it in any high gear(4th of 5th) and floor it. If the rmps shoot up its slipping. Either do that or redline 1st and bang 2nd. See if it slips there.

Your idle has nothing to do with the clutch. And having trouble starting your car doesn't either. I agree with what the guy above said about testing the clutch. If your idle is low, you might need to adjust the little idle screw on the throttle body.

when your driving and you floor it and your rpm jumps up quickly and you seem to b moving slowly its time for a new clutch. Clutch is slipping. I just had mine replaced.
