Well not for me anyways

Recieved my Terzo back from the dealers today, complete with new short engine and clutch!!( had to pay for the clutch mind )
Have to say though, i was`nt surprised at needing the clutch....it seems that everyone who has the engine replaced needs a new clutch....wierd huh? ....and at £250 plus VAT, their not cheap either !!

Have to say though, the car is soooo much smoother ( with 40 miles on the clock i spose its going to be though ) ...and the clutch is deffently alot better...so maybe not a bad thing it needed replacing after all

Only another 960 miles to go before she`s all run in again!

Thumbs up

Snap!
just got mine back a week ago and now sounds so much better in the morning
i also had a clutch fitted as it was badly worn at 45k but i was even more chuffed when they said it was free of charge, i think this was due to me only having the car for six weeks before the work
so now have the boring job of running it in, anyone know the best procedure for this?
