Shoddy Workman ship?? advice? Help please! all advice is welcome!!
Ive got an evo 8 only 18k miles runs sweet as a nut....
It was showing signs of needing a new clutch so we took it too a man with a good reputation as an evo specialist. We dropped the car off and just a few things (not important) gave me a feel that things were not right.... When he contacted me it turned out that he had left the clutch change to his mate who shares a garage with him, as he was away,
After speaking I to his "mate" he advised me that he had had trouble getting the saft and center diff out, not sure of all the details but they say that "some thing" has broken up and welded its self up to the center diff & shaft....
Now to me this is all sounding a bit weired as i drove the car in with NO faults to my knowledge... and now I have no other choice but to buy either a new gear box and or center diff!!!! if the diff had "welded its self to the gear box... would the car have still driven as well as it did?"
Please leave any opinions or advice you have about this, as im not sure what to do... may be this has happend to you? or is this a common fault on Evo 8's???? also Im being offered a second hand diff... should we settle for this?
my feeling is that HE has done the damage while changing the clutch and we are paying for it!
Many Thanks |
