its slipping as it is worn and if you dont get it sorted asap you will have to have the fly wheel skimmed as it can wear into it. dont drive it with it like this just have it sorted out for you.

its not the type of clutch thats causing it and on a GTI there isnt really anypoint in getting a really good one as its just a waste of money due to the fact that it is unnecessary.
