yeah it's sounds like your in need of a new clutch. If you are mechanically inclined and know what your doing you can do it yourself... just have some good help around. Otherwise a shop will charge around 600 ( around my town that is the price i got with my own parts) for them to put it in.

They are fairly cheap but the expensive part is having it installed.
