Clutch slip -driving to SPSP?
Am canvassing a few opinions. Have loaded up the car (Toyota Prado) ready for the SPSP. A month ago while my son was driving, the clutch slipped hauling up a hill. He had never experienced this before and, because the car was slowing, gave the engine more revs, instead of less. Got the car back with the clutch smoking! Since then it has been OK, I could induce slip if I tried, but otherwise it pulled well, even when trailering. Today, car was slipping as I accelerated on the flat. Maybe because I have two telescopes + batteries, camping gear etc all stacked in the back the extra weight made the difference. Am wondering how it will go up the Blue Mountains.
Question, should I risk it and drive the 300km to Ilford, or give the whole SPSP weekend up?
