agreed... sounds likely to be the clutch.

have you noticed an increase in drivetrain lash... i.e. jerkiness when going on/off throttle. i drove for about 1k miles on my 'limp home' teeth inside the rubber center of the clutch before i realized the horrible vibration and drivetrain lash were a result of my clutch taking a shi*t.

i thought my ring and pinion were going south, but a quick check of torque shaft play in neutral yielded lots of slop = clutch shot.
