Slx rear mech clutch problem

My rear mech just starting playing up today , when the clutch is on the lower chain just goes all sloppy and has no tension - if I turn the clutch off the tension is ok again , aside from the clutch / tension issue the mech is working / shifting fine .
Anyone got any ideas ? I've googled how to adjust the clutch - but not sure if that's the problem or it means the clutch mech is probably just stuffed etc or something else needs doing ?
It doesn't seem to have done a huge of hours .
Thanks in advance if you have any ideas or advice , might save scrolling through a ton of threads on unrelated mech problems .
Cheers

What he said. 5 minute fix. 10 or 11sp? Never broken an 11 yet. Haven’t looked inside to see if improved or I’ve just been lucky.

It’s sunny...then not 3 minutes later. Just how I like it.

Cheers guys , It's a 2014 10 speed ,( dyna sys ) I've backed the clutch off quite a bit from where it was ( and was working fine at ) though shifting down to smaller cogs the cage just kind of gets stuck so as you go down the chain gets looser , still only when clutch is on .
I have to wind out until its not really doing anything for the cage to move back .
Far as I can tell everything looks ok in there , might have to visit the lbs .

Solved ; cheap and easy fix , it was the clutch itself , only a $20 kit .
It was easy to swap out .
Part numbet Y5y198020 .

o_O Now you've really lost me , thinking you maybe thinkin I'm some one else
Moorey's a mod dude, don't argue with him. He knows who you are better than you do.

.... or maybe he's just simple and thinks everyone called camo is the same person

The only way to prove it to him is to send him a dick photo by PM.
