How can you tell if you clutch is letting go and needs to be replaced?

How can you tell if you clutch is letting go and needs to be replaced? I looked in the manual and couldn't find anything, just wondering what i have to look for, or if you can test it in anyway. Thanks, Jord

You step on the gas and go no where.

0 mph. Put in 4th. Let off the clutch. If car stays on, clutch is bad. If it turns off, your good.

I did the put into 4th test at 0MPH, the car nevershut off, but it didn't just sit there and run either. If i let it out on the faster side, it would die, but if i let it out super slow and kinda rode the clutch, i can slowy creep ahead and most likly take off from 4th. Isthis bad?

The car still goes good as normal while driving around...
