Default ABSOLUTE DISASTER with new clutch :(

Right guys...

So i ordered my new clutch with lightened flywheel.

Opened packaging when it arrived to look at it like a big kid all happy.

Took to the garage had it all fitted. Immediately the car had problems as when i was STILL it wouldnt go into any gears... UNLESS i revved to 2500, then it would happily go in gear... once car was moving was absolutely fine... confusing as hell! Sometimes i could also move it into 4th or 5th while idling and then the gearbox would open up and could put ti first or reverse... Once in gear the car drove faultlessly which im happy with.

Anyway have just realised that i'd left the new clutch bearing at home whne i took the new clutch... rung the garage and they said as the part wasn't there they just fitted the clutch with the stock bearing thinking it would be ok... Obviously it isn't as my friend said the stock clutch bearing might not be wide enough or strong enough to fully engage the clutch.. any ideas?

Regards

In any case that bearing is better than the one you were going to put in.

You aren't replying to your other thread that you started in the same forum about the same problem where people gave you the same suggestions.

Instead, you're making a new thread. Lol...I'm pretty sure you're trolling, but...

Here you go.
