And I can put the car in 1st and let off the clutch and the car satys on. In every gear when I give it gass the RPMs go up but the car is not hardly moving at all. I'm very confused being that my car only has 33K miles on it and ford says it's my clutch slipping and warrenty does not cover it. I would hate to pay for a new clutch if it's not the real problem. Your help is much needed. 2000 Silver Frost SVT #77 of #2150 KKM, No Resinator, Custom Heat Sheild, Gutted Out Pre-Cats, Ultra Street Underdrive Pulley, Polished Aluminum Intake Pipe, Ford Racing 9mm Plug Wires, Modified SVT Sail Pannels, Audi A6 side markers, Blue SVT Stickers, Silver Dash Kit, Clear Corners and Blue calipers
