After clutch install issues...
Just had my clutch installed and went through the break in process with it... i'm having some issues....
Its an exedy HD, after the car is hot from driving, if i go to downshift into 2nd it feels like the drivetrain locks up and the car would come to a complete stop... i havent let it come to that, i put the clutch back in and just slow down with the brakes... it was kind of like this after the install but it never seemed to grab like its doing lately. If i let it out, it sends such a shock through the car, it is louder then when you are driving and shift hard and get the loud noise from the drivetrain then...
I'm taking it back to the place that installed the clutch tomorrow to have them look at it, but something isnt right.
Any ideas ?
AMS recommended redline shockproof lightweight for the tranny... do you guys think that could be it ? not lubing enough ? i ordered bg synchroshift just in case... but im curious to see if anyone else is having this problem, how they fixed it, are they just dealing with it, or anything else ?
thanks guys
