weird clutch problem at high rpm
i just noticed this yesterday, but at near redline rpm the clutch automatically depresses about an inch, is this normal? i tried searching for similar problems but didnt find any, car runs perfect no problems what so ever, i hope its not crank walk lol or something serious im hoping some 1 is goin to tell me its normal :P

Do you ride the clutch a lot?
Are you seeing RPM spikes at wide open throttle indicating slippage? You should look for that as well, but it does sound like your clutch is about to take a dump. |

The 2008s have a weak pressure plate, mine spontaneously malfunctioned at 30k miles.. my clutch disk was near new… if it is indeed the pressure plate.. u will need an 09+ pressure plate/disk which necessitates a 09+ flywheel. 2000 in parts alone.

Mine was spontaneous loss of hydraulic pressure disabling the car.

I had the 08 clutch and on replacement it was clear the newer one is much better. Bites much more on shifts.
