Jantos, ask for me too. Im getting frustrated.

I had pete come to help me and we couldn’t get the bellhousing to budge.

He’s figuring there must be a hidden bolt or something I missed.

We gave 'er and it wouldn’t move.

BAH!

$300 is like dirt cheap to get clutch changed. Sure it’s just labour but it’s  
hell of a lot better then what I’m calculating: $70/hr x 10hrs+ for clutch job.

I’m guessing…I’m so far into my progress that I feel like an ass if I got  
a shop to do it.

YO JSP3C… here’s something i found about the “clutch slippage you may be asking about”… remember how you said its been acting like that?? well… basically it happened around the same time it was really really cold outside right?? anyway here’s what i found… its written below in blue letteres…

> It’s a hydraulic clutch and anything hydraulic starts to get thicker when it’s colder out.  
> My altima does it, my NX does it and my Silvia would do it if I was driving it.  
> It’s nothing to worry about if it goes back to normal once it’s heated up.  
> I’m sure the gear shifter feels “sludgy” too at first.

You didn’t really “find” this, it is a response by someone on the board to your question in the tech section. :roll:

You can just post the link, that way he gets all the information, and instead of posting twice in a row, you can use one post that includes everything you want to say.

AND you posted in the wrong thread, read the title and post appropriately.

Yes, yes you do. But I’ll let you enjoy your x-mas break before troubling  
your sorry ass.

I’ll go at it on my own next few days. Will see what happens.
