How to know if your clutch is slipping

[Sami]

What are the first signs that your clutch is on the way to the bin?

 

[Mole]

i think the usual test is go along at 30mph, then stick it in 5th, and put your foot down, if the revs go up and the speed doesnt, then its slipping, and its prob on its way out.

 

[Tucks]

Revs rising but your speed is not. Hot smell when you pull away. Or a difficulty to engage gears(crunch maybe?) are all good signs its clutch time.
