404 clutch still not found

 

[skeezer]

Lotus Evora for sale. Needs clutch.

I'm assuming you have to pull the engine and trans out of the car to do it?

I can't see the pictures at work

 

[Ti28]

Doesn't look that much worse than any FWD turd.

Good comparison, totally the same.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Yea I totally always take off all of the body panels when doing a clutch swap on a fwd car.


Who is this bozo?

 

[Ti28]

Oh nose a few body panels have to be unbolted. Big deal!

 

[10sec]

Cause just bolting them back on is all you have to do.

 

[Ti28]

Fucking facepalm!

Are any of you two tards Techs?

Yea, I just did a clutch job on a civic 2 days ago. Needed a hood, fenders, bumper, headlights, radiator, condenser, and bumper supports so I figured while I had all of that off, might as well do a clutch.

 

[Ti28]

It's just bolts.

 

[nytebyte]

Wow, great design. Props to those engineers.

2 hours MAX

"Book time" is 40 hours. Obviously thats dealer time...but even so. I would pay you $1,000 bucks to change out the clutch in 2 hours. I mean you couldnt even finish a 3rd gen in 3 years.

 

[syP]

Has he even started on it yet?

God damn

Lotus of Plano just informed me that the clutch on my new Evora has to be replaced at a cost to me of $6400.00... It's a 2011, purchased new barely 4 months ago and has 5000 miles on it now with no track driving , or tire spinning ,just normal driving... This seems unbelievable , absurd !!!... Maybe at 15000 or 20000 miles like a Ferrari or Lamborghini but at 5000 miles and 4 months old with routine driving ?
