Re: clutch slippin??

if the engagment is too high, it will slip...if you say the clutch pedal suddenly got harder, then it sounds like your master cylinder pumped itself up. this isn't good. the reason from this is not having the correct amount of freeplay at the top of the pedal. all you might need to do is a simple adjustment. there are instrcutions on the net on how to do it for our cars.
