It can always be less serious than it sounds.. I would try to hold off panic until you find out for sure

You should get a centerforce clutch, they are great for the regular car, and will prolly out last your car too. I have had them, and they kick ****. Get the Dual Friction. I just cant stress how good this clutch is.
