new tranny, new clutch

[ToingToing]

alrite so im happy. i took my car to the dealer on 5/10/04 coz it was grinding from 2nd to 3rd when shifting at high rpms and the clutch was making a creaking noise and i got it back last tuesday (5/18/04). they replaced my messed up tranny and my clutch for a brand spankin new one. and how much did it cost for everything? uhhh $2880.19 with the labor. and how much did i pay? uhhh, i paid NOTHING. my warranty covered it. anyway, im out. i was just sharing my story and i hope your dealer is taking good care of you all. peace

My clutch has been creaking for a while now. The dealer said it needed to be lubricated so they did that and said everything was great. Of course, I get in the car at the dealer to drive away and it was still creaking. I didn't have time to go back in so I'll take it back to them in a while. I think a creaking clutch has been a problem with these cars and remember something about a TSB being released about it.

There is a TSB. I think it's TSB #02-002 Check alldata.com for TSB's. I also brought my car in for the clutch pedal and the tranny crunch from 2-3. They said they replaced a ball joint on the shift lever(not sure if that's what they replaced) and the shifting is a little tighter but I can still feel a slight grind. I have to bring my car back next week to have them change the master cylinder to stop the squeakin from the cutch pedal. They had no parts avail. So hopefully by then the crunch will come back and I can give them hell!
