According to the mechanics, the clutches still look like the have 50% life in them. Things that I think it could be:
- Transmission fluid leak: would explain why it happened on a hill, could be a red herring
- Wiring harness
- Clutch alignment: constant rubbing generates heat
Let me know if anyone has other suggestions. |
Fluid leak should be obvious. Get under the car, wipe everything clean, and check it daily for drips.
Wiring damage should be obvious too -- inspect for fraying, loose or broken connectors, etc.
Clutches can be realigned with the right diagnostic tools. They're self-adjusting but there is still a manual process.
