Default Anyone that had the TSB 08-2-10

Hello,

I think i have this issue, i took this bulletin with the delearship so they can fix it.

My question is what exactly need to be done to fixed, as far as i understand they need to replace 2 bolts.

Can anybody explain me with simple words what does the delearship will need to do and if something went wrong what can happen ?


Thanks

well, it looks like all they really do is replace the bolts that hold the engine to the transmission (and if need be, replace the separator plate between the two), but to do that they need to take out the transmission which is where a whole list of potential problems could happen...

Mine does the same thing!!!

Since my car is still under the bumper to bumper the work will be free, and I'm also going to have them throw in a different clutch because they cant charge me for pulling out the tranny .

All in all though it only happens for what, 5 or 10minutes? So its up to you.

Mine is under warranty too, it will be free.

I dont want them to cause any other issue while removing the trainny.

I happens for 2 minutes at most....

Well my uncle works at the dealer, so i dont have any issues with them doing the work, but I can see where you're comming from. I just saw it as a chance to get a free clutch install.

Good luck on the decision, let us know what happens.

Already done that, they agreed that the TSB need to be done.

Now im not sure on what to do, they already ordered the pieces but i can tell them not to do it, cause im afraind something wrong could happen when taking out the tranny.


I dont want to have issues later with the tranny or something like that.

I havent make any decision on this.

Advices, if i dont replace the plate and bolts can i have more issues later when my warranty ends ?
