kavan-k Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 Clutch is 100% bud, had it up at mechanics all day today and he reckons it's the gearbox but I don't understand it :/ he told me it was the mount, changed that and no difference. Frying my head atm, I just want to drive my car lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kavan-k Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 Seems grand, no change in it, every other gear is 100%, reverse, driving and changing gears all fine, just that taking off in 1st gear and the engine starts dancing. Does the engine jump on yours too Ben? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

grum-glanza Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I had this problem before and I was told it was the clutch disk and that it wasn't straight like there was a bend in it if that makes sense the mechanic told me to drive it for awhile and see it should go out of it as the clutch wears down but if it didn't that the clutch would have to be changed. I was lucky enough that it did go out of it about a month after I had it in 1st and reverse. the only other thing I can think of is check the timing and the fuelling of the engine Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sort of stuck now I need it sorted, I couldn't drive it the way it is bud it's crazy bouncy when I take off Quote Link to post Share on other sites
