RPM goes up while in gear, vehicle speed remains slow (was: Is This What It Is?)
Is This What It Is?
so i was going up the parking lot to the second floor to park my car in an indoor parking lot when my rpms started shooting up but i was going like 5 miles per hour. does this mean the clutch is slipping? i have a 2004 wrx with vf 39 with modz like exhaust up-pipe dp etc.

Fixed thread title. Sometimes it helps to use an appropriate title if you want a reply since not all members bother reading every single post.
If the revs went up at 5 miles per hour and your foot was not depressing the clutch pedal at all, then yes, your clutch is slipping or else it is not fully engaging for some reason. A worn clutch will also slip more noticeably in higher (numerical) gears if you step on the throttle.
