Just my luck...

So, I finally get my "updated" clutch installed...

So, far I drove it about 100 miles. Pull it out of the garage and what do I see? :barfy: Either light gear oil or hydrolic fluid all over the garage floor. (I got a cold and can't smell it to tell the difference.) I think it's syn gear oil just due to the volume and the fact the clutch master cyl. is still full... The stuff is all over my underside. GRRR

WTF - all I want is a job well done and done right the first time - do I have to do it myself? I thought we got SVT certified techs to work on our cars...

This one gets 'em all... :rant: :upst: :hbomb: just wait for Monday's phone call... deep breath, rant off.

All techs are not created equal, thats for sure.

Well, it's stil in the shop... they say oil leak - from the engine...
no details yet -
Can't wait to hear this one - :bash:

Someone got some sense and figured out that it was the axel seals leaking.

STILL in the shop. Waiting...

Hope the rest of you have a better experience with your clutch replacement!

Today's update...

Axel seals installed - slight leak still present. Now engine oil... :knock:

Was told it was the rear main seal. Told them to replace the clutch disc if it has been soaked in oil.

I don't get it - In April I replaced my first clutch AND tranny in my Jeep. I am not a mechanic by trade, I have no lift and a modest set of tools. With a little help I had no problems, leaks or issues. Finding good doner tranny at a good price was my only issue.

Is there some way to confirm the tech doing the work is "SVT certified" ?

Should I stop by and give a few pointers? WTF !!!
