It sucks but you would be amazed how many shops just do things there way. This isn’t just a audi thing You can read across the other makes of cars and it’s the same story.
I called the owner of the shop and lost my fucking mind on him. Tranny being pulled first thing Monday morning. I’m trying to be calm until I can see for myself what’s up but I’m fucking livid right now. If installation error fucked up my shit someone will die.
Sorry for the rant but I’m pissed. Should have just done it myself.
Damn that sucks. Hopefully they handle this professionally for you. I’d be livid too, but try and be nice when dealing with them. They’ll be more inclined to take care of you.
Yep. A lot of shops just throw stuff together and hope that it works without reading the instructions.
I think a local shop to me (NGP Racing) has been messing up JHM clutch installs for a little bit because a few people have been contacting me about issues with their JHM clutch kit that was installed by NGP.
if I didn’t spend so much time explaining the issues to the guy I wouldn’t be so mad but I did and he still fucked it up. I just hope and pray that its loose bolts and that’s it.
The good news is it sounds like they are going to try and make it right. Don’t expect them to tell you exactly what it is but it’s got all the signs of the bolts backing out.
It was fine when I left the shop. I put a total of 167 km on it. I went to get a case of beer and noticed it in the drive thru. Clutch engagement right at the floor and clutch not fully disengaging.
Tranny being pulled now. Jake I’ll contact u right away if anything is messed up. He swears up and down left and right that he followed the instructions to the letter. Torque spec. Loc tite. tightening pattern. everything.
Take note that nowhere in my post did I say ‘murder only happens in America’ or ‘murder never happens in canada’.
The key to forming a strong argument is to avoid hyperbole and absolute terms like ‘never’ or ‘none’. I said ‘not likely’ as it is far less likely in Canada than it is in America. That’s simply a fact.
