troubleshooting help
hey guys, wondering if you can help me, i think its my clutch but you listen and tell me what you think...
it started in 5th gear i would floor it and it would rev up then drop down in rpm's and take off, almost like i had an automatic...lately it has started doing it in 4th and 3rd gear as well. i think its my clutch, i am at 5400 miles...what you guys think ? i'd appreciate any help in the matter thanks...and also i guess, a good place to get the stage 1 or better for a good price, thanks....

also one other quick question, if i got my oil changed, and the guy accidentally put in some antifreeze in my engine...not much, just a little bit, what you guys think would happen ?
how the hell do you accidently put a little antifreeze in someone's engine oil......-_- Although I'm not an authority in this....but....I would drain it and replace oil and have the guy that did the anti-freeze crap pay for it.

Step 2: Find man who changed oil, and punch him in the face.
Step 3: Repeat step 2 as necessary
Step 4: Get that oil the hell out of there. If the antifreeze added was anything more than a few drops, and you've been driving around for a while like this, I can GUARANTEE your engine is done for. Antifreeze will ruin every bearing in the motor. It may not make itself outwardly apparent right away, but I can assure you the damage has been done.
Step 5: Speak to the owner of the shop. Explain the situation. FYI, Misu will not cover your engine any more, as an oil analysis would reveal the antifreeze. If it were me, I'd threaten to sue. If that is how a shop trains their employees, then they should not be in business!!!!!

Absolutely. What he said. Also, it sounds like your clutch is the culprit. Sorry about your luck. Dont let that quick lube walk all over you. Thats just pathetic.
