clutch problem

[mattd]

Hi friends

I dont have much knowledge about the manual transmission cars. I own 5 years old Nissan sunny manual transmission car. I just want to know how do we suspect the clutch problem in the manual car? Since my work timings doesn't allow me to go to the service center, just wanted to know I f i can suspect the problem in my clutch on my own. Please advice. Thanks.

Since your Nissan Sunny is 5 years old, I am sure that it must have been hard on clutch now as you must have drove your car in heavy traffic. Sudden stop and sudden driving in a traffic directly affects the clutch of the manual transmission car. And generally clutch goes through a trouble. If your clutch is slipping, chattering and making noise when you press it, then surely you need to go to the service center to repair it or maybe replace it.
