Clutch issues?

[DarylVTR]

First let me start off by saying i DO NOT RACE AROUND.

However, if i pull away quickly, the clutch often slips and hangs if that makes any sense?! (Raise the clutch and it still feels as if your at the biting point and the engine keeps revving). Then afterward you can smell abit of clutch and bite goes higher up. After a few mins it goes back to normal and is fine driving normally.


Any ideas what it could be? The bite is still only half way down so i dont think its knackered? :P


Cheers me dears
