Clutch Grinding in 2nd and 3rd

Astrosfan · 10-31-2012, 02:00 PM

its a notchy feeling, almost like the gears are trying to engage. but its not the normal notchy feeling we are used to with the z. the sound is almost a crunch, but not quite. very hard to describe

I cant believe i forgot to mention this. The other day i did a couple of burn-outs on my worn tires before getting the new put on. On the last burnout, i shifted into second and the clutch slipped the entire 2nd gear and part of 3rd. It wasnt until i noticed it was the clutch and not my tires burning did i stop. All of this happened after the problems ive been having, so i seriously doubt that caused what was already a problem.
