I got my car back on Friday so I thought I'd give you guys a little update. If you guys forget or don't know what happened in the first place check this thread.
So the grand total came to $1328.34 for a new clutch installed with a few new parts like a bearing, speed sensor, and differential (thanks Hardkore for that).
Now for the best part about the entire story. My car is STILL making the noise I brought it in for. Actually its worse. So what does it end up being? The CV shafts. Nice. Real nice.
So for now I am not driving my car until I can afford new CV shafts. I don't feel like burning up another differential, its not worth it. So it leaves me in question now, did Ford know it was the CV shafts and just proceded to yank the tranny out of my car to turn around and make a quick buck off of me? Or did their so called "Ford Techs" actually make a mistake? What do you guys think?
