Hi,

I have recently (yesterday) changed the whole gearbox with a used one in a very good condition.
The car is shifting well, no grinding noise - but the clutch disk is slipping on acceleration :(
It was okay and never had that problem on the old gearbox, no oil leaks on the clutch housing, i didn't bleed the master cylinder yet since it was shifting well, could this be the problem?
