Ouch, looks like someone installed a new clutch without turning the flywheel



What ever you do dont admit to that if its true. Most all clutch companies have in the warranty that its only covered if you turned the flywheel.



But from what I've been told they can tell if you turned it or not when they inspect it. Brian (from BNR) has a friend that own a company that builds clutches (SPEC clutches) and he's the one that told me that.
