need to do one on my c16xe garage put wrong one in... dont ask its a touchy subject!

anyways kinda made up my mind to take the engine out the top leaving the transmisson untouched....

is this the best way? not a fan of taking the gearbox off and having to bent in to the engine bay for everything...

my thought exactly...

well i dunno if they put the wrong one in... its either that or they didnt replace the whole clutch... just the friction disk....

either way its not working right along with all the stuff they broke while changing it that i have just finished fixing...

Sounds like a right pain in the ass, should be warentied so take it back man or get a refund and take it somewhere else, i always find with things like a clutch, leave it to the experts too much fiddling and hassle, lol, whats it doing exactly

sliping like a cnut and generally annoying me(such a waste of power)

erm.. i have the cable slakened off as far as it goes and have done since i got it back... this is not right.....

honestly i thing they put a friction disk from either an x16xe or a vectra x16xev?

honestly i think if i go back near the garage(my cousins) i'll be done for murder

if i had of done the job i would have done to whole clutch assembly... i dunno wtf he has done....

lesson learned... dont be a lazy cnut
