She narrowly escaped. Damn cute 18 year old dame. She gave me the bedroom eyes after we parted ways. Spaghetti everywhere. I am no longer a virgin. And I can fart like a free man

Just got my notice in the mail. 3 years ago my master cylinder busted at a stop light. Had to get it towed to the dealership only to find out they would not cover under warranty because of my after market clutch. Paid $485 for them to replace the master cylinder and install the AMS support ring on the master cylinder. I'm sending my receipt to them for a refund. Should I get the new master cylinder or just keep going with what I got?

All done. Tech said they took pics of calipers per Mitsubishi to confirm no damage done by bleeding brakes.

Clutch feels softer.. like a good softer. much smoother to me

Okay, just got back from the recall after fighting traffic ...It did take 5 hours but I did have a service done so I am sure that added some time.

The clutch engagement does seems a lot better.

I had MAP put in their CMC kit with the Evo IX master cylinder. My clutch pedal seems to engage and disengage at different points every once in a while (lower) and then returns to normal like someone else described. I wonder if it just needs a good bleed cause a small amount of air is in the line, I also have the SS line. Mine is a 2013.

I wish Mitsu would have done this sooner to see if it would have alleviated some of the transmission notchiness.

Times like these I miss my BMW and Rover where they give me a brand new loaner car.
What dealership did you end up taking it to? I would like to avoid the 2 day long one if possible. Fight on!

Not sure if I'm going to like that. But I guess I'll found in a few hours. Dropped it off this morning.

Engagement right off the floor tells me there may still be air bubbles in the system somewhere, it's something to ask them about at least.

Engagement seems to have returned to its primordial state.
