Arrow clutch problems last week :*(

hey everyone!

i have an 04 RL cars been running strong with no problems. the other day i thought the clutch felt a little soft. itd also engaging super high. I was talking to my one manager at work and i mentioned to him i think this car isnt going to be one of the rare cars that the clutch can last 100k plus. he said "yeah, i thought it felt a little high last week"

i let him drive it.

so anyway last week i went to put the car in 5th at a low speed and i kinda babyed it in nice and slow and what do i hear! grind!!! it did it about 3 times that day and than like once the day after that.

i heard that if you drive a car super nice for awhile you can wear off alittle of the burn if your clutch is dammaged.

i dont hard core launch this car ever, a little stop and go hear and there and i like to redline 1st now and again.

so after about 3 days of babying it its starting to feel better and no more grinding 5th. im puzzled about this, i only have 13,700 miles on this car, think i should take it in to the dealer???
