Over revving when accelerating - r6sporty - 3:rd-Oct-2017 Hi, Got a problem and hoping someone can help. I've recently bought a GTC 2.0 CDTI SRI. ( 2012, 51000 miles ) had it around 4 weeks and have an issue already. The only way to describe the fault is its as if I press the clutch pedal while accelerating. usually around 60-70 and in 5th are sixth gear although its done it once in fourth. it starts accelerating ok then loses power and starts over revving just like I have pressed the clutch in. I let of the accelerator or drop down a gear try to accelerate again but the it still does it. then other times its fine. have also noticed a burning smell when this happens? Does anyone have any ideas or info on this?? thanks Dean RE: Over revving when accelerating - Rusty2009 - 4:th-Oct-2017 Could be the clutch. RE: Over revving when accelerating - mw2299 - 4:th-Oct-2017 Definitely sounds like the clutch. Had this in my old car and it was time to get it changed (or in my case scrap) |
