Clutch slipping

Hey Guys,

Has anyone had any challenges with their clutch slipping or not grabbing between gears? It almost feels like it is "glazed over" sometimes - I can run right through the gears and not accelerate.

The problem is it does not happen all the time - SO - the dealer is having a hardtime pin pointing the problem. It happened once for one the service managers, but not the foremen - so they are not sure what to do.....

Has anyone had a similar problem?

Other than that, I LOVE MY CAR!!!!!

It is probably the clutch damping device. It essentially slows down the release of the slave cylinder and could feel like a short slip between gears.
