Hello, I know that there are certainly already many topics on this topic. However, I could not find anything for my “special” case. The following problem: I bought a new tooth and belt for my car (18 years old, 106,000 km) and had it done in a workshop. Unfortunately, the car does not drive as before when starting and generally in the lower speed range (up to 2,500) the car does not get the power on the road. When I step through the gas I hear that the engine is getting “loud” and the speed is also slowly going up … but before it was definitely much more splashy. Starting with passing wheels is definitely no longer possible (not that I would do that otherwise, just as an example) Also on the highway. Tempo 100 in the 5th gear and it accelerates like a turtle. Didn’t want to drive faster than 100 now before I know what really is with the cart. So I’ll be right there. I was told that this was also noticed during the test drive and that my clutch is probably over (it slips through). The question whether it might come from the new timing belt was denied. It was probably all installed correctly and “set up?”. Now I trust my workshop and I don’t want to subdue them by any means now. I just want to hear the opinion/experience of a few other people on this topic before ic h again 500 euro put into a car which is not 1000 more value …. What do you think ? Can this problem really come from a defective clutch ?
