it'll be much easier on the foot. but since your symptoms were i guess mild, yet there, you may not see much of a diff.

It will breathe fire and spit venom.












































That, and the clutch pedal will be easier to depress (try not to put your foot through the floor the first time).

What is your production date? How many miles on it?

I never really noticed much except the chatter when clutch out... The occasional gear grind shifting ( which I thought was driver error) LOL but when bill woekenberg checked it out he showed me the hiss thing when pedal is fully depressed he also told me that the occasional grind as I described was due to this... He also told me my clutch is well worn....

It should be when the design flaws and faulty materials are replaced

If I were you Chef, I would have them change to the KR Short Throw Shifter when they have the tranny out. It won't take much to do at that point, and it makes a world of difference.

I did LOL... BTW, if you were not experiencing many issues, not much will change nor feel different. I had NO symptoms and all I could tell was the car "seemed" easier to shift between gears and "maybe" a little lighter pedal feel. All in all, I just wanted it done for future preventive issues. Glad you are on your way! Good luck!

Just got off the phone with the dealer back home and they are going to replace everything on my car next week. My buddy is gonna drop it off for me. They just asked a couple questions and said it would not be a problem. My car only has 6600 miles. They have already done a few of them apparently. Thanks for the info guys.
