Message	OK so heres the deal end of last season my clutch started slipping under heavy acceleration. I originally thought this was cause by a faulty Clutch master cylinder. If i put the car in gear and stayed on the clutch the clutch would start to engage on its own and the car would stall (30 seconds or so). No fluid leak from reservoir and level stayed the same. So now getting ready for this season im doing my rear main seal and im noticing that my clutch looks super worn down. Im assuming this clutch is shot? Also what kind of clutch is this it states its Valeo V-2503 UM on the pressure plate but when i google the brand / model i get nothing relevant. Is this a OEM clutch? since ive upgraded my car if this is a oem clutch and its bad ill just scrap it and get a aftermarket. If its aftermarket and capable of supporting my mods than ill just throw a new friction plate in it. I will update my mod list right after this post. Sorry. Can a worn out clutch act like a worn out clutch master cylinder? is it possible i had BOTH go out on me at the same time? also i stopped driving the car after it started slipping because i didnt want to wear out my clutch. Some and any advice on what clutch to get for what i believe is a "Stage 4" car.
