Yip, as Simon said. They probably kill gearbox, new HD clutch,new relase bearing is noisy now. Clutch cylinder is damaged too.
Also, workshop try to hide :crazy: a problem and fill my PG1 with some shi$@!$ thicker oil, and now i got serious problems with changing gears.
They don't flat fly wheel, HD clutch has larger friction plates and this is probably the reason of whole damage. Also when replacing prop bearings (new GKNs) something is wrong and i got vibrations.
Police were present when taking my car out from them
.
Now my car is in my friends garage, they need to remove gearbox, do a good inspection and let me know about damages. But for 90% gearbox is wrecked, so i start to searching an replacment, and i would like to do a good overhaul in U.K. (steel caged bearings , seals ect.). I need to buy something on place and rebuild it in your country. Doing this here is worthless.
Gearbox is PG1 S7EMU for L-series diesel MY'2000 (1999-12-13). Kizzeh please let me know about price, and could you post a photo of damage?
The worst thing is that they build this car and care about it since 2009...
I don't know why they do it so bad. In worst scenario my loss is 1300 GBP, and they take 340 as workshop labour.
But i got all invoices so we meet in court soon.
This is a terrible feeling when somebody try to destroy years of your hard work.
. I left them a good shaped, detailed car with new parts for 600 GBP. (they build it with me for all those years) and they break it down.
I'm very sad now, miss my hippo, and feel as someone butcher my best friend.
