Help With 99 maxima needed. Car hesitates or the clutch is slipping. not sure anymore

Help With 99 maxima needed. Car hesitates or the clutch is slipping. not sure anymore. So when ever i drive and i change into 2 gear or 3 sometimes my car just shakes after i step back on the gas pedal around 1-2 rpms after that it stops. What can this be ? if the clutch would be sleeping wouldn't it slip on the high way either . I have no codes or check engine light on. I put super in my car all the time, mobile 1 oil , spark plus and belts, fuel filter done within 5000 miles. Car use to do it less back them now its more frequent, What i noticed is that the rpms drop a lil sometimes when the car is in neutral , They drop about 50-100 rpms and it goes up really quick, and you can feel it in the car , any help would be great , any cheap sensors i can change to eliminate it ?, thx in advance

well, at what rpm are you shifting at when you experience this? maybe coil packs? you are a 99 so that could be an issue.

I had a slipping clutch about a month ago. It was hard for me to determine. But here is the post I started. http://forums.maxima.org/4th-generat...oil-packs.html
