not long bought a bmw e36 318i it has high miles 170k
it was driven fine when i bought it up till yesterday i went to pull away in 1st gear and the car started kangarooning tryin to stop and start
when i put it into 2nd gear its fine again and same in the other gears
when it starts doing it in 1st gear if i dip the clutch the car stays running and ticks over fine
if i give it a good rev there is no missfire !! everything sounds fine
i have had bmws in the past and the only thing that i feel is different is the clutch seems lower and it will try to slip if i try accelorate away while turning (it doe not slip in any other gear at any other time )
could the clutch be anything to do with the kargaroo effect im gettin from it
thanks
its not a shudder from the clutch its when i pull away and get to 2500 3000 3500 revs its starts only in 1st gear

Thunder grumbled in the dark clouds as rain poured over the tall grass, quenching its thirst. A pair of figures struggled against the wind and rain whipping in their faces, while a rich scent of wet dirt filled their nostrils. They moved briskly through the grass and from under trees, as if they had a great purpose. The leading of the two was none other than an animal—a fox. The fox’s sleek, shiny white coat had been drenched and had managed to appear as a dirty gray.
“Are you sure this is the right place, Saybelle?” The girl said in disbelief. She wrapped the black cloak more tightly around her face, trying her absolute best to shield herself from the most unwelcome and uncalled for rain.
“I’m quite certain, Ophelia,” replied the fox.
Ophelia sighed, she felt as if they had been searching for hours with no progress. She was becoming tired, with an uneasy restlessness looming over her. The weight of her cloak was becoming unbearable and simply annoying to carry; she followed the fox’s trail through the grass, both of them too determined to find what they had been searching for.
A cave had seemed to grow out of the darkness a further distance away, which encouraged the two to quicken their pace. The form of the cave began to get clearer; a large mouth appeared with toasty golden light glowing out, illuminating a fair amount of the darkness surrounding it.
“Over there,” The fox said, her ears perking up at the sight, she stopped momentarily, “come, he must’ve been waiting for us, we should hurry,” She turned eagerly to face an exhausted Ophelia.
Their eyes had—over the past hours or so—grown accustomed to the dark, but intense light swallowed the mouth of the cave. The cave was much larger from the inside rather than how it appeared at the entrance, its ceiling stretched out into the darkness, the light which they blindly followed could only reveal its depth so much.
As they continued to go deeper, they realized that the source of the light had been a roaring fire, its bright flames slithering towards the top and filling the air with gray smoke and much welcomed warmth. However, the fire was certainly not all they had encountered—or had come for—through the flames a young boy sat, waiting patiently.
“Skyler?”
“About time—I was just about to go looking for you two, these days you just don’t know,” He sighed rather sadly.
Saybelle yawned and stretched out her slender paws. Skyler grinned at her,
“You look like you had a good time getting here,”
“Most pleasurable, though having a bit of snow instead of this rain would certainly cheer me up,” She said in a dull voice, shaking off rainwater as if it were something very horrible. She turned away and searched for a comfortable warm spot to sprawl onto—if any.
“Of all the places, you choose to meet here?” Ophelia gave the cave one sweeping look.
“I doubt Furawn would have the time and patience to go searching for us in caves in the middle of a storm,” He grinned, “it was the safest place I could think of—what did you find?”
“Heard about the King of Dukeworth—
“’Dropped dead,’ I know, there’s gossip about it all over the Town of Quinley,” He looked away from Ophelia and fixed his gaze upon the fire, burning a bright orange into his sharp gray eyes.
“I can’t believe no one’s doing anything about it, though,” Ophelia said irritably, she heard a soft snore to her left; Saybelle had curled up into a ball with her head lightly resting on an oddly shaped rock.
“There’s nothing much anyone can do about it, Ophelia, it’s strange magic—the kind no one’s seen or heard before,” Skyler whispered with his face very alert—as if a big secret had finally been out.
“Do you—do you suppose we should just tell someone? Tell them, tell them what we know? Perhaps—if we work together, we can put an end to this?” All the while she stuttered through, Skyler was shaking his head in pure disagreement.
“But why wouldn’t they believe us? We have Saybelle—to prove to them we’re telling the truth. She is the only survivor in her family and she saw it with her own eyes! This is exactly what Furawn is afraid of, that someone will finally figure out what he’s up to, that somehow it would leak out and spread among the kingdoms—because there must be someone who knows how to stop him, ” She pressed on.
“We can’t tell them that we crossed the Gertrude Mountains! It’s forbidden to go over them!”
“They don’t have to know that we crossed the Gertrude Mountains,” hissed Ophelia.
At that precise moment, a faint shadow had appeared through the firelight on the opposite wall from where Skyler sat. For a moment, he sat quite still before he whispered shakily, “They’re coming in here,”
Ophelia’s eyes widened in horror, the first thing she did was quickly go to Saybelle’s curled up body and shook it awake.
“What—
“Shh!” She hissed through clenched teeth. The fox shot up as the shadow on the wall became closer, “The fire! The fire! Put it out!”

i don’t know who else to turn to anymore.
i think i may be depressed and have an anxiety disorder and i’m 16 by the way.
i feel sad, lonely, ashamed of myself, scared, sick all the time. i don’t go out, or talk to anyone.
i have no motivation to do anything and i feel so worthless.
everything in my mind is negative.
if i do say anything, i will apologise for saying it.
i have no self esteem, i used to be creative but im to scared of failing at it.
i don’t remember the last time i smiled and meant it.
i feel like crying all the time but i can’t. i don’t want my family to know that i still feel bad because it totally destroyed them seeing me like this, i don’t want to hurt them.
my friends abandoned me because i was depressed and i can’t get over it, i had to watch them be for a year being all matey with eachother while i sat on my own in school all day feeling like s***. they would talk really loudly about their plans together for the weekend, they would play mind games. im too scared to make friends incase im rejected. but i have finished school and am going to go to sixth form in september and im scared every1 will reject me because im ugly and sad, shy and i have no life. i have a stutter so i don’t talk much, i have so much to say but it just stops me, i feel like im trapped inside myself.
i can’t sleep cos loads of negative and scary thoughts come into my head, like im gonna feel like this forever and be alone and miserable. i will become a burden to everyone that i know and that they will all hate me in secret.
i cut sometimes too. i hate it, i feel so sick and ashamed at myself, but if i don’t do it i feel like a failure and that i deserve to feel bad and im not worth anything more. i’ve tried to cry my sadness out but i can’t cry. the thought of someone finding out about me cutting makes me feel sick.
also i feel bad because loads of people have had loads of problems in their life like family members dying or being homeless and i’m here complaining about my pathetic excuse for a life, but im so lucky for my upbringing and the things that i have. (apart from feeling like this)
sooooo sorry if you think that i’m being selfish and self centered cos i really don’t mean to take what i have for granted.
i’m not being attention seeking, i have no one to talk to.
i had a counciller, i can’t get another one, we can’t afford it and i’m probably not worth it. i don’t want medication either.
sorry it’s so long, if you read it all thanks so much and i would really appreciate some advice about where icould start to feel better and build in confidence. even if you don’t answer atleast someone will know how i feel. thanks xxxxxxxx

I’ve stuttered off & on ever since I was a kid. I’m a pretty successful, good looking guy, and will be starting at a dream firm after my MBA soon. But in spite of these things, I don’t feel comfortable about myself because of my problem. I’m generally a confident guy and have no problem raising my hand and talking in class -or- talking to people, but sometimes, when I can feel a stutter coming on, I refrain from these things. I get the feeling that people confuse my handicap for a lack of confidence and think I’m being aloof. The truth is I really ENJOY being around people, but I don’t want to get embarrased. The stuttering is affecting my social/dating life and will likely be an obstacle to advance in the fast paced corporate world where I will have to make presentations in front of groups shortly. I try to be positive about all this, but I’m not happy with myself. This discontent likely comes through when I’m talking to people (girls in particular). What should I do?
