Hopefully there is a hot babe there to entertain you. It really expedites the process

Mine is still biting closer to the middle/top after the recall was complete. Just feels softer/smoother

I think he said it returned to the original point.

I wonder why this happens? I wouldn't mind to have a lower engagement

Good call Kracka! took my car back in after it was engaging near the floor, they bled the system again and now it's back to normal.

Thanks

I just got mine done at El Cajon Mitsu in San Diego. I dropped the car off and they dropped me off in an electric car. When it was ready for pickup, then they picked me up in the same electric car. I just wish they would have washed the car. I got an oil change, cmc recall, and the headlight alignment recall completed. I will definitely consider using them again for the free drop off and pickup service. I live 10-12 miles from the dealership. They stated they are doing 2-3 Evo cmc recalls a day.

Sorry what I meant was since everyone seems to be saying it engages low is that normal and something to get used to or was it not done properly ?

ps. my lack of a JD or license (or malpractice insurance) should be noted, as usual
Just to be sure, I have an aftermarket clutch which caused my mater cylinder to bust back in 2010. When they replaced the master cylinder I had them also install the AMS support ring to prevent it from busting again. Will they still perform the recall and will they also refund me for the previous work ($485)?

BOBBY (TrogdorWBL) where you at! Man I just called Mitsu at the Bloomington location and they do not do it over the weekend. They said its suppose takes about 4 hour but in actuality about 7. Does your place do the same thing?

You have mods that directly interfere with the recall. At best, they will still do the recall, removing all non-standard parts in the process.

With regard to having already done the work and asking for repayment, as I explained earlier (see post 75 on page 5), it depends on when you did the work.
