Default final resolution to my clutch probelm. Thanks Mike@Riverside....

I got my car back (although it was plastered with gross bugs and vinyl all over the windshields (different issue im not happy about)), the clutch feels great. Mike did a great job. Its still a little loose when you start the car up, but when it heats up it gets harder to a comfortable point. Sometimes it gets a little too loose and its hard to shift fast because you cant really feel where the friction point is. But no worries, I think its just gonna take getting used to driving the car. Overall thanks for Riverside, Mike, and AoA for getting this fixed so fast. Great job!

P.S. They also swapped out my Crappy Sirius with XM....so much better.

Default Thanks for the update. I'm glad it worked out for you, I thought of trying the...

sirius but I have XM on everything now and I'm happy. Did you not like the Sirius because you were used to XM or it wasn't your taste?

What did they charge you to do the swap?

thanks

Glad you got it resolved. Did you ever find out the clutch diameter, and if it's a multi-disk setup

Default I am into electronic music and XM has a much better selection. Things like ASOT and Subterranean

plus i have had XM since 2002 so I am used to the channel lineup.

Thanks for working with us! I am glad you are satisfied with my work and the experience you had at Riverside. I'll take care of your seatbelt chime next time you come in . Sorry I forgot about that!
