Burned my clutch a bit and now it's smooth again
Like a lame-butt I mis-shifted during a deceleration heel-toe downshift and lurched my car.
Prior to this for the last 6 months, my low rpm clutch stutter has been getting worse and required more slip to transition smoothly. At 100k+ miles, my clutch is wearing out.
But after my blunder, I must have burned the uneveness into a more even clutch wear pattern cuz now it's NICE AND SMOOTH. Haha. I did the 3rd gear to 5th gear WOT test and major slippage is still not present.
I thought this might be a little interesting.

it is, you have contamination. either a oil leak or tranny leak, all you did is burn your fibers to match the warpage of your flywheel, sorry to be negitive, just being honest.
