I am baffled !

I drive an 05 TL 6 speed, my problem is as follows:

in gear( any gear) while i'm rolling, if i just punch the gas its as if the car loses traction ? but thats not whats happening. The rpm shoot up 1000rpms hold there for 1 sec and drops to normal, its as if it catches traction, but i know i'm not losing traction cause at 80km/h that it ain't gonna happen with are cars. My mechanic checked it out and told me its not my clutch, what do you think ?

Can something be slipping internally?

I'm 99% sure it's the clutch. Maybe not the disk but could be the pressure plate. My clutch did that to me last year.

Your mechanic is wrong lol
