Re: Good place (or hookup) for getting my new clutch put in? (1.8t Sleeper)

But not on the tranny!

My buddy's 1.8t blew up on him on the highway. turns our that there's a gear that has a pin that will sometimes come out and allow a gear to fall around inside the tranny. VW guy says he see's 2 a year like that. Anyway, this happened at around 19k miles, so the warranty covered a new tranny and a new clutch for him! Plus he got to sport a Trailblazer for a week while the stealership had it.

Plus, German Auto will probably charge you brand new OEM price for a used one from a roll over fire!

If he has 30k on his clutch and needs replacement, I'd say go for something better than OEM...sound like you need it.

Actually German Auto Salvage sells more new parts than they do used.. it's just the Terry is now the king of Shinanagans so I wouldn't feel comfortable with him wrenching on my car

Yeah my buddy has been waiting for some stuff from Terry for like a month now. But he did my tranny pretty fast...
