Alright here is the laydown..im always on deployment and can never be there to get things done cause my parents dont care very much..well they care they just dont care for the car much..but i just had a new clutch put in on my leave in April..and wen i came home for a couple days in aug. went to pull it out and they did something wrong...im lookin for somone in the south shore plymouth area that could possibly pick the car up and see wut the deal is or fix it im willling to pay for labor,parts if needed,and hauling...i really dont have much connections with people that are mechanically enclined,plus i grew up in the city with my dad so that doesnt help much either..but the help would be nnice..just let me kno and we can work a deal out if anyone can do it..it would be much appreciated..its not that BIG of a deal but i would like to get it fixed so i can bring it to my duty station in the states!
Thanks- Pat

wen car is started it makes a banging, or clinging or knocking sound trying to remember..sounds like its coming from what sounds like the clutch area and can feel it a lil in the shifter this is while idling in neutral..wen i depress the clutch this noise slowly goes away and eventually stops completely...wen the car is put into gear its almost like a grinding..just wut i think..but i can feel the vibration in the whole intire car..the sound wen out into gear and being drivin just five feet is gut wrenching..it does it in as far as i kno 1st 2nd and reverse...it goes into all gears fine if i cycle threw them with the clutch in..the work was done by "The Shop" in Plymouth...
my car was swiped by a truck being moved in the back yard while i was gone right after i got the clutch but it was sitting in the same spot i parked it after i had the work done wen this happened and was never moved but def cant be behind wut the problem is..my bumper just looks really ugly and scraped now :/
the aftermath...already have a new bumper cover and support that i will be putting on in the future..im pretty good with body work for that matter..actually have qhute a few parts sittin in the car that i will be installing once i get a good amount of leave to come home...but im getting of topic
were is the car located i could pick it up and figure it out for you if you would like. ive done clutches on a few cars on the site including russ's 03 cobra and pats 93 lx both will give you a good word about my work

the shop should warranty there work no matter what even if the car was hit it was not in a major accident and the front bumper has nothing to do with a clutch. if they say no tell them you will call the better business burreu {sp} to report them and start telling everyone that do half ass work that should make them fix it
