clutch problem?

[Rabbit16v@attbi.com (Rabbit16v)]

I recently had this same problem.  I swapped in a 5 speed for a 4 speed on
my Diesel Caddy and had the parts (clutch) from both transmissions so I
installed the parts that looked best.  I overlooked a bad spring in the disk
and it would do the same thing.  I installed a new disk only and it's smooth
as glass again.  HTH!

it jumps up and down like when you first learn to drive a manual.  the
problem is still slightly noticeable in second, but 3-5 are ok.  is the
clutch slipping?  is there something wrong with my tranny?  i do have an
unidentified slow oil leak, could it be the crankshaft seal on the tranny
side? im swapping transmissions next weekend, hopefully i will have it
figured out in time to get it all fixed at once.
