[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 174414, member: 21"] The friction discs can still be good in thickness, but can be fried from abuse. Even the wrong kind of oil can start them slipping. Same for weak clutch springs so measure the length of those as well when you take it apart. I've had transmission issues in the past. If the gears are bad they will notify you as described above and usually get worse pretty quick. if a gear really lets loose it can destroy your engine. A more common issue is the gear shifting mechanism allowing the transmission to drop out of gear for a moment. Those false neutrals in between gears are a sure sign of it. [/QUOTE]
