Need some advice -
I just changed the oil in my car. After I drove about 40 total miles on the freeway when i came to a junction. I downshifted into second (30mph) to slow down and get around the bend, but when I straightend out and gave it some gas to go, the engine revved to about 6k but the car didnt go anywhere. Clutch was all the way out and when the car did decide to start accelerating, my rpm droped down to 3k. When I exited the freeway, it was still acting up for about 10 more miles then went back to normal. Not sure what happened? I want to prevent anything before it gets worse. Engine is bone stock except for SRI.

 

sounds like a worn out clutch

 

ill have to check that out.... any other tips?

 

Clutch might be slipping A lot.

 

if you had an auto, I would have said trannies gone. but since you have a manual.. I'll go with clutch too.

 

alright thanks will check out clutch

 

or youre actually going into 4th and not second do to a shitty shift linkage? could be alot. could be injectors. start checking.

 

I would say its the clutch unluss you have a hickup in the fuel or ignition system

im sure i was in second because when i let off a little it slows down my car and engine rpms shoot.

ok so its not anything to do w/ my recent oil change.. will drive again tonight and we will see if it still repeats
