well mine is on the way out, do the revs shoot up when accelerating. when i let off the clutch in 4th it doesnt cut out either. so it probably needs replacing.

If a car begins to pull off in 4th and doesnt cut out, its a sign alright that the clutch is on its way out.

The clutch is not a big deal, they're designed to wear. If you cant do it yourself, put a few quid away every week. It shouldnt cost more than 300euro all in.
