Has anyone had any problems with Spec clutches? I have had one in for about 2000 miles and something is very wrong.
At first the clutch seemed o.k. Then everyday, a little less grabbing, alot more smell. Like a metallic sulpher smell, and no it's not the exhaust. I definetly know the difference between clutch and exhaust smell.
The clutch slips very badly in first gear, emits this god-awful smell, reverse is a joke. It just shakes violently. The wheel hop I, and alot of others have experienced, is minor compaired to what this clutch does. The whole car shakes like I have never seen before. You cannot let the clutch out in second gear, without heal-toeing or it chatters real bad. This car is one big POS now, and I'am thinking selling it because I cant go ANYWHERE without this crap clutch slipping, smelling, chattering and such. I absolutly hate my car now. I dred even looking at it. I have talked to alot of people and no one seems to know what is causing this.
Now, the company who installed the clutch is VERY well know, and they do clutches, turbos, all kinds of stuff for a P-5, so I know they know what they are doing. No question on their reputation.
Please, if anyone can give me any helpful ideas, you just might save me from selling my once beloved, now total POS, P-5.
Thanks!
