    please help

    my s2 when in 5th gear at 3 thousand the revs the counter jumps upto 4 thousand for a while then comes back down again its like the clutch is slipping but its not
    is it just the rev counter or is it more serious?

    it seems to be fine in other gears and engine does nt change in sound when it does it hope its not to serious
    thanks keith
