Shvitz2k - think posative thoughts.
They want two days so they can be sure they do not rush the job and do it right the first time.
Take deep breaths, good luck!

Don't worry (famous last words). Seriously, I had mine done about 3 weeks ago and believe me, it's worth it. No more rattle and buzz when decelerating. I'm no longer ashamed to slow down for stoplights.

I dropped the car of at 8:00 a.m. one morning w/ hopes that it would be done by 5:00 p.m. The clutch was done (also replaced the pressure plate and release bearing, plus had the flywheel resurfaced), but they ordered the window motor to fix the not-so-auto down feature and therefore the car was not ready until lunch time the next day. Still not bad considering all the work that had to be done.

I hope your's turns out as good as mine. GOOD LUCK !!

Be sure to note your odometer reading so that there will be no question of additional mileage added to your baby.

So stop shvitzing already, Shvitz......I had both 054 and 055 done and it took four days. But they had to wait on FedEx for the 3-4 gearset so if you are only having the clutch done it should be 2 days. But it is well worth it! I did not realize how much noise I had before. Now it is quiet and great. I did notice that the 4000 rpm ringing comes at 8000 rpm now though.

But what can you do if it happens, just get mad and complain?
