    So easy a caveman can do it, MY ASS.

    So i bought a 325e in need of a clutch repair. The PO said we had a buddy put a new one in. but it was grinding when you engaged it to far. so i bought it cheap and took it home. this weekend with the help of a friend we pulled the trans. What a POS, the caveman that worked on this car must not own a metric tool, every bolt was twisted and striped, it took 4 hour just to get the trans out to find a destroyed throw out bearing the clutch fork was grinding on the pressure plate and is destroyed what a mess. after seeing this we cleaned up and will hit it again next weekend. I need to get a clutch fork if and one has a one. If you don't now what you are doing ASK some one. I new this was a hard job but this was painful to a new degree. :blowup:
