Well Car in the garage as i speak, after crawling all the way there and praying for no one to flash me to give way then being looked at stupidly when i crawl across the road making them come to a stand still lol :laugh:

cant wait to get it back tonight paid £150 all in for fitting and gearbox oil .. is gearbox oil just gearbox oil? will they use some cheap crap?

got it done today, car sounds like a diesel ticking along when driving, im pursuming thats clutch chatter vibration ive read about, as the car sounds completly different now, but just phoned the garage, and they said they forgot to put the undertray back on the car. i dont know what one of these are but im hoping it masks the sound abit!

all in all i love the feel and the lightness of the clutch, im sure ill get used to the sound

Have you got your power back now, and faster and is it pulling any better?
