Might aswell get the flywheel changed if your planning of having lightweight one installed at a later date, save on labour costs.

Alright well the dealership is not going to fix it for me so I have to tow it back and do it myself but on the bright side I am planning on putting in a stage two or stage three clutch instead any ideas? tongue.gif

Why would they not fix it for you? Shouldn't it at least comes with 90-day warranty!?!?!?

The dealership says that the car was as is and wont do anything but really its better this way i was going to change the clutch eventually anyways its just a little frusturating that they wont do anything to help me in a car I bought two days ago mad.gif But the stage two clutch is going in soon I have a friend helping me who really knows what he is doing. We are also going to turbo chaarge and put an intercooler and custom waste gate in eventually. Plus i will be trying to paint the dash inserts and im putting an Alpine head unit in. Any suggetsions are welcome

which dealer did you get it from if you don't mind me asking?
that is really weird. i got mine from ken garff saab and they pretty bent over backwards for me. they replaced the battery and windshield for free. also i got the car over 2000 under book. it must've been one of those smaller dealer. bummer man. gl with that. we need to meet up once you get her on the road.

Yeah its a smaller one called giffen diamond auto on state street. Yeah we should meet up once its working what part of utah do you live in
