RichP said:The only way I know is to look at it, all my other vechicles had an access panel you could remove but not the XJ though if you are a contortionist you might be able to get a look at it thru the CPS slot with one of those scope things like butt doctors use Prolly need the type "A" tip
[all type A's that I know are tight asses]..
I noticed that first thing in the morning or late at nite, since it got cold up here, my XJ does a surging things for the first couple of stop signs in my development. But it seems more associated with the TPS I think than the clutch as it goes away afer about 4 or 5 minutes of running.
Can you elaborate a littble bit more?? How do I test it, and where it's at??XJCHUCK72 said:Are you sure it's the clutch or the slave cylinder? When mine went out about two years ago, I thought it was the clutch since I had about 120K on it. I found out it was the slave cylinder and the clutch was fine. I did however replace the cluthch since I was in there and all.
LOL... ok... I can find it, but how do I test it any hints??? I have had too many beers by now to attempt walking down the stairs to the garage to look at my booksXJCHUCK72 said:Man!!
Do you have a chiltons, I think I got my diag from there.
XJCHUCK72 said:All I can say is, does it get better as you drive or is it slipping all the time.
XJCHUCK72 said:Sounds like you have the early stages of clutch itus, go see a doctor.
Kejtar said:Well, it drives without any problems in general, but..... when I had to pass someone and squeeze back in, when I hit the "pedal to the metal" it hesitated for a short period of time (a second ??) and then it did what it was supposed to. It shifts fine, and drives fine, unless I need to accelerate suddendly.

If the engine speeds up while the vehicle remains at constant speed (or slows down), then clearly the engine is no longer connected to the drive wheels. Since that connection is your clutch, it would appear that you are facing a clutch replacement.
