Slipping will not show in the form of when the clutch "engages" or "Disengages". It will be noticeable as drastic loss of performance and sometimes a chattering sound when engaging. Almost every standard transmission vehicle has a clutch adjustment somewhere, and thought I am not familiar with it's location on the Fit I can tell you that it will help you to fix the issue you are 'feeling' with your car.

If there is a loss in acceleration or lack of drag after down shifting be sure to get it in RIGHT AWAY (as stated by someone else earlier) because you do NOT have much drive time on a slipping clutch.
