I had to do a clutch and pressure plate replacement for my car so I put it in the garage.
While the mechanic were removing the parts they found cracks on my flywheel.
So he advised me to put in a reconditioned flywheel for the car. I agreed.
So the car now has a reconditioned flywheel, new clutch plate, new pressure plate.
After connecting the entire thing up the gears were not falling in. So this mechanic removes everything again and REMOVES the gearbox!!!
He then tells me that some links and some balls inside the gear box needs to be replaced. What can I do... I had to go ahead with it.
Then after fitting back the whole thing he test drove the car and calls me and says gears 1, 3 and 5 fall in but gears 2 ,4 and reverse grind!
I then visit the garage after work and I found out that this man has gone and bent my gear link ( one of the long links from the gear lever to the gearbox) to try and make the gears fall in.
But still gears 2, 4 and reverse dont fall in.
On top of all the damage above the guy has done some welding at the gear mount (see pic) and due to the heat the rubber mount has broken as well.
I took the vehicle out of the garage immediately. But I need someone who can help me to fix my car!
I have got screwed so badly!!! This was a perfectly working car before this guy touched it!
