Car crap
Friday, May 12, 2006 5:28:05 PM
OK, a few weeks ago, you may recall this blog entry of mine, where I mentioned that I destroyed something on my car.
Hmm, that clutch does NOT look good. 
Also, the flywheel was heat damaged. All of that is now replaced.
In addition, the piston rings were replaced. So, the engine runs a lot better, now.
The bad stuff is...
The driveshafts are destroyed. The car moves for now, but isn't to daily-drivable status yet...
The shifter box needs rebuilt, because first gear and reverse are indistinguishable, and I have to shift towards reverse to get first.
The parking brake handle broke on me.
So, there's some work to go, but...
Thank you to the following members of TDIClub for helping me with this:

I'm sure there's some that I've missed, though...
