    Manual Transmission Woes; Fvckin Rare.

    So I've changed out the pressure plate, clutch, slave & master cylinder, and resurfaced the flywheel. Was driving around in the city on Saturday and the clutch pedal hit the floor and wouldn't come up. Got it towed to my house. Popped the hood and noticed the brake reservoir was low so I...

    HELP! Radiator Fluid Sprayed Everywhere!

    This just happened to me the same fvcking day! Coolant sprayed everywhere and I think it may have cause my Cam shaft sensor to go bad. Hopefully it will dry off. I got my Hose tree from Maxx for $216.00 with next day air! He has a great day. I'm getting mine in today.

    I need an upper radiator hose!

    Woah that is a mess ahahha. I got my next day aired from Maxx at Five Star ford for 216 bucks. If you took that 15 bucks and put it in the next day air with Maxx you would have had it for the same price and no clean up ;). He has a great deal on next day air. The coolant splashing throughout...

    I heard that some poeple have tapped threads and put in their own nipples and that has worked... it didn't seem high pressure.

    I need an upper radiator hose!

    I snapped that little tube off that goes to that hose lol. It also happened to me in the Jaguar S type I had before. They say it gets brittle over time. Is the gold anti freeze dex cool? I have a 2000 LS can I just prestone that says 'all makes and models' or do I need the good coolant?

    Part # YW4Z-8B502-AA. The bleeder screw does not open! Whoever did the engine swap in this car before I bought it must of 'screwed' it up.;) I don't need the radiator and all the hoses that come with the 300+ kit from Ford. Is anyone parting out their V6 or has an extra one of these around...

    Go to RealOEM.com. Find the selector seal for a 2000 323i build date 4/1999 with the m52. That is the correct part. You can find it on autohausaz.com

    Clutch job questions.

    I installed the transmission and bled the brakes. When I went to bleed the clutch the pedal hit the floor and then it didn't come back up. It stayed this way. I even pumped the clutch 20 times before opening the bleeder and no fluid came out of the bleeder. I unattached the hydraulic line from...

    Clutch job questions.

    Wow I got lucky! I'm about to do the selector seal in my 1999 BMW 323i and I had the part for the BMW, it's common. It happened to be the same exact seal! It fit like a glove, same seal and they both leaked lol. I'm so lucky I had that seal I was calling around for 3 hours. Neither dealer could...

    Clutch job questions.

    My pilot bearing just came in last night, was late because of the snow storm. I just found out that the selector seal I received was for the auto transmission. This sucks. Can't find the part anywhere. Ford is calling back. I got the usual "The LS came with a 5 speed?" Mechanicboy where...

    Clutch job questions.

    Doesn't the V8 come with a 6 speed? I asked the machinist how long it would last he asked me how long I plan on keeping the car. It should last two clutches at least with good driving technique.

    Couldn't have said it better myself mark. He had a dedicated machine that was really nice. He definitely knew what he was doing. I will be bringing him my BMW flywheel soon to see if he can resurface that one as well.

    Everyone told me to change it out. I do have the part # but I can't get it for 3 days. 1 day shipping is a $100.00! The kit I bought on ebay was suppose to supply it. They're going to pay for the part but I don't think for expedited shipping.
