If you suspect your clutch is slipping, don’t wait for it to get worse.
A clutch that conks out leads to other damages you could have prevented.
There are clear signs of a clutch on its way out:
You don’t want the clutch damaging your gearbox, leading to repairs you could have avoided by having the clutch checked.
When your clutch packs up you’ll strain the gearbox.
That pressure will translate to breakage, leading to more money spent on something you could have avoided.
If it were a small matter to fix your gearbox it wouldn’t be a problem.
But costs involved with fixing a gearbox is always higher than the client would want.
And it’s a grudge purchase. If it happens to you, you’ll have this nagging voice telling you it would not have been necessary, had you kept an eye on your clutch.
When your vehicle’s revs don’t match its speed, your vehicle has to work harder.
That means you’re using more fuel.
