My clutch feels kinda Choppy? I left and went to eat drove it nice and slow today, except for once... i dropped the clutch once today this morning. other then that i was good! I eat tonight. come out and go to start my car and the clutch was choppy and i start it and put the car in N. let the clutch out and it felt like it was catching on everything on the way up?

I pulled the clutch pedal up to "adjust it" and it didnt help at all....

Anyone have an idea of what the problem could be?


Par for the course tonight i guess.....

This.........
Getting ran off the road by i guess a new teen driver?she was facing straight, and going to her right. Running me off the road.
and a guy pulling out in front of me and hitting his brakes in front of me. ON THE FREE WAY!

so im home early cause tonight is not my night!

Sounds like clutch chatter when you're moving, but if it's doing it in neutral, I'd bet on a worn/bad throwout bearing or bearing retainer. Possibly a bad pressure plate if the fingers on it are bent or anything.
