rubber peice in clutch?


ok so my dad just got off the phone with the guy that did my clutch and as some of you have heard the last time he did the work for me 3 months ago i was having the same exact problem i had b4

i went back comlaining and on the 4th time he put some rubber thing in and my problem went away

well he just told my dad that the rubber groment (spelling? maybe grawment?) that he put in last time should still be there and my clucth is fine

i dont know wtf he did but is that suppose to be there?

it only took him like a minute to put in when he did and its like up top where the pedal connects i guess

to get it looked at and fixed but not go to the same guy

he should do the work and i shouldnt have to pay to get his mistake taken care off

and u siad that i should wait till its done getting broken in and then complain but he says their is no break in period and i tld my dads its already at 300 miles and still as bad or getting worse so he called the shop like 30 minutes ago

Everyone save a few were telling you to go somewhere else. I know you did and that guy said its normal to, so go to another place. Yes the guy should fix it, but it seems like he isnt going to. Id go somewhere reputable and have it looked at and then take the findings to this guy and threaten to sue him.

there is no break in period. the TOB needs a little time to seat, but it should seat very shortly after you drive it the first time. if it doesnt, it needs to be reseated. I have no clue why your pedal is shaking. My centerforce clutch felt the same as my stock clutch, but it gripped way better and can take the added HP. Maybe there is a rubber grommet in the firewall that he forgot to put in.....why he would have taken it out in the first place I dont know, but no clue with out feeling it or knowing what he did.

Im just saying, i dont know if anyone can give you answers to your questions. take it to a transmission shop or the dealership.

did you buy this zoom clutch as a kit or did this guy just buy it and put it in? sometimes if they do it for you they will just say the old parts are good and put them back. maybe he put in the old TOB. ask him for all the old parts.
