Yeah, it turned out to be glazed clutch pads. I opened up the cvt cover and the inside was thick with grime and the clutch shoes were a dark color and smooth. I lightly sanded the crud off the shoes and cleaned everything up and now its good to go--rollers do need changing though, noticed flat spots.

On another note, do you know of a good way to tighten it all back together without an impact wrench?

I tried using a filter wrench (the kind that has a rubber strap) to hold the clutch and variator as I tightened them to no avail--so I ended having to use the impact wrench and am scared I'm gonna end up stripping it one day...I've got to go right back in there when I get the new rollers.

On another note, while on the subject of rollers, have you ever switched to heavier rollers in order to increase power?
