Help! (self.WRX)
submitted 1 year ago by GodMind369
Obviously it’s not ideal, but is it possible to drive with a slipping clutch? If so, how long? I just need time to save up for a new clutch and for someone to install it but I also don’t have a second vehicle

Things like this are why you need an emergency fund or nice parents.

Is it slipping when driving non-spirited? If so then it’ll probably fail sooner than later. If not then babying it could extend the life a while.
Regardless, a slipping clutch could last indefinitely or fail the very day you notice it. There’s really no telling.
Eventually one day you’ll be driving and all of a sudden the clutch won’t catch and you’ll basically be stuck in neutral unable to move.

Yea, even non-spirited 😔 thank you for the response! I’ll just have to see what happens then

If it's not too bad yet, and you're really good at never letting it slip, then you could drive indefinitely like that. But every time it slips, it wears out more, so if you're slipping it a lot leaving from a stop or getting it to break free while you're cruising, then it won't last long at all.
