Losing the clutch sucks..... especially if that motor trans set up is like my cavialier........ BIG JOB!!!!!!!!

in the transverse mounted engine set up you got to basically pull the whole front end of the car apart.
Book hours to do my clutch (what a mechanic gets paid to do it) is about 9 hours

We thought that you barely going anywhere after hearing the car bouncing off the rev limiter and you dropping the clutch you were having problems :lol:

HEY. It was 11:45 and nothing but Stop&Shop was open. I looked for clothes line (that is what we always use, but the line gave out after towing like 6 cars lol) but they only had twine. TWINE. I tell the guy I am towing a car, he shows me twine.

But yeah it was that or nothing so...

AARP? The American Association of Retired Persons? How are they going to help you? Electric scooters don't make a lot of torque.

I think, beyond a tow strap, you need to get a few phone numbers from folks in the club so you can call them instead of the non-driving boyfriend, when you need help.

And tell lame-o BF to go get his drivers license anyway, whether he drives or not. Photo ID is important in many ways.

V 11-18-2008 10:40 AM

aarp...oh boy lol, u meant AAA. and AAA in addition to roadside assistance, gets you discounts all over. heck at the local hampton bay inn, i got more of a discount with AAA than i did with my military ID.

towing with a tow strap is still illegal

He can't, he doesn't have 6 points, otherwise he would get it. And I have some numbers, but my phone died. As much as I love you guys I don't have the capacity to memorize your guys numbers lmao

I have to get AARP. My dad is an old fart and since he is paying (and it's cheaper) I have no choice.

GP99GT 11-18-2008 11:30 AM

LOL aarp

tow trucks were built for a reason

alamantia 11-18-2008 11:42 AM

My father is service manager at a saturn store, I get a discount of you decide to go with OEM clutch I can see what his price is. Im thinking aftermarket will be cheaper though.

NJLT1SS 11-18-2008 12:16 PM

LOL, when me and my friends heard the car took off we thought it was a badly slipping auto.
