i got a 97 accord ex model, and my clutch was slippin..so i changed it, but now its doing the same ****..it is still slipping..wut could it be? anyone..im getting really frustrated because i dont know wuts wrong wit it..when i hit the gas my rmps go up but my car speed remains the same..anyone have this problem before..we changed the clutch 2 days ago..took 4 ever..all that work for nothing...anyways if anyone could help out that would be nice..

 

maybe u did not install the throw out bearing rite......
do you have good pressure in ur pedal?

on the job like dis, u shouldn't tackle on it ur own, shhould let the pro do it.......although u have to pay them, sumthing happen like dis u have sumone to go after with, now you have no one to go after with but urself.

 

Was the rear main seal leaking? You may be getting oil on the pressure plate.

 

no the rear main seal wasnt leaking..we put a new one in, do u think it could be that i need to adjust my clutch pedal? becaues before i changed the clutch my car wasnt even grabbing at all. when i would hit the gas it would just not move, now its moving but if i hit the gas past 3rmp fast, it slips. We installed everything ok, im pretty sure of that..could it be anything else? i want to get it fixed quick because its really annoying..also..usually it takes about 30 mins of driving for it to start slippin..

 

ohh and yeah i do have good pressure on my pedal. that is just fine. and as for the throw out bearing, it must be right because my car was doing the same thing before we changed the clutch. plus we made sure it was ok. we actually took the trans out 2 times to make sure.

 

You can't adjust an hydraulic clutch system. Did you check out to see if the clutch cylinder travels all the way?

 

so if the clutch cylinder doesnt travel all the way that would make my clutch slip? are u talking about the clutch release cylinder?

 

With no pedal pressure, there is nothing but pressure plate force holding the clutch to the flywheel.

If you get the slipping with no pedal action, its either the pressure plate not holding the clutch to the fly, something on the flywheel preventing the clutch from grabbing (grease), or the rivets on the clutch are hitting the flywheel causing loss of holding power.
