Exclamation ok so wth is going on?

it may seem long but Please bare with it. its a serious situation


i just received my car from the dealer which has been left with them for the past 6 days for replacing a door actuator and a rattle that comes from the engine bay area and another from the driver's door. everything was fixed except for the door. it was fine for the first 12hrs and after that, the rattle in the door came back. its been the 3rd time, the dealer failed to fix it twice already. and i went out driving last night and i noticed something very weird. when flooring from a low rpm from 3rd gear and higher, the rpm rising is inconsistant. it would rise fast and slow down by itself and vise versa. for example, in 4th gear, from around 2600rpm, if i floor it, the rpm rises like im in 3rd gear and takes a short pause and slows down. wth is going on? i think the dealer f'd it up cuss they said that they are going to be test driving it to discover the rattles. what should i do about the rattle in the door that keeps coming back and the weird rpm thingy? any idea?

Clutch slipping? Perhaps the car was test driven by someone didn't know how to drive a stick and messed up the clutch?
