If I suddenly step on the gas after 2,000 rpm in 3rd gear, the engine revs increase, but the speed doesn't increase. What else could be causing this problem besides the pressure plate? antipollution2023-12-31 18:15:07

The first thing that comes to mind is that there is a gap somewhere. I wonder why too. I hope you find a solution to the problem.

It hasn't even been a year since I changed the pressure plate. My five-year-old pressure plate was spotless before, but we had to replace it because the bearing was making noise. It's a Valeo brand, too. However, for the past few months, there's been a slight back-and-forth wobble in the gears. The mechanic said it was the mountings. Now it's starting to leak. I think the problem is oil getting into the pressure plate. But I don't know if the oil got into the pressure plate from the transmission seal or from somewhere external.

If the clutch is hydraulic, have the pipe checked, otherwise you will have to look at the brake pad again.

When I say hydraulic, I mean, it works in conjunction with the brake fluid. Could it be causing air in the lower center or something? Since mechanics prefer to lower the transmission directly, I'm waiting, thinking it might be something simpler.
