Well new thread to my old one to make sure noone makes same mistakes I did. They could not get any peddle pressure after the install of my stage3 clutch and and aluminum flywheel. Dealership mechanic who is working on it owns his own transmition shop. Because he is taking the clutch and flywheel out for cheep would cost me a grand for the dealership to do it. Clutchmasters had nothing to say but well we will take a look at it when it gets here and see what the problem is. I reply with the problem is you are advertising the wrong clutch and just cost me a grand in labor so what are you going to so about that. They are going to cover the the price of the products. Once they get them back. Do not buy clutchmasters it will not work.

 

did they use a vacuum bleeder and keep topping off the fluid in the resevoir?

 

Yes they even replaced clutch master and slave cylinder for free just to assure me they did everything they could

 

hmmm... i'd like to see some other ppl chime in here since i'll be in the market for an aftermarket clutch at some point.

 

I sounds like they are trying to help you and you jumped there ****.

 

Bill hahn is running a stage 3 clucthmasters and badbaltguy is running stage 4.

 

What model number did you recieve? ex: 04-916-HDTZ? Also which vendor did you purchase from?

 

they have talked to the dealer several times. i should not have to pay for them to rip my tranny back apart and take their clutch out. you tell me you wouldnt be a little pissed?

1 x Clutchmasters Stage 3 clutch 08+ Chevrolet Cobalt SS (243177-III) = $599.991 x Clutchmasters Aluminum Flywheel 08+ Chevrolet Cobalt SS (243178) = $399.99

dont got the clutch itself. this is modernperformance.com. i work away from home had the clutch about 3 months ago all the numbers matched up when i got them.

ill be checking with them asap.

guy at the dealership and clutchmasters matched up numbers and told me they were right also. ive done all i can being 8 hours away i made a thread 3 weeks ago with no information of anyone else having this clutch installed. i appreciate the ive send PM's emails out to eveyone i can in hope for an answer.

 

i'm still wondering if the mechanic forgot about a simple detail...probably not, but it just seems odd that you'd have no clutch pedal pressure..

 

i have a clutchmasters fx300 and i can honestly say it was worth every penny. Verrrryyy goood clutch and has held up to one hell of a beating. My shop installed it in 3 hours, went together perfect.

 

I also bought mine from Mondern Performance and its been sitting in my closet for 5 months now... I will have it installed within the next two weeks and I'll keep you posted.

But is this for a 2.0LNF cobalt?

 

I also have a stage 4 clutch masters with the aluminum flywheel, I install it my self and it works just fine.

 

^^ sounds like the OP needs to take a trip to Canada

 

i wish you guys would have replyed to my thread two weeks ago. i had no answers now i feel like a jackass!!!!

i second this are you the LFN im going to have my car trailored to ******* HAHN hopefully. waiting on a email back. just to show my dealership they suck dick at ******* *****. guy told me it would be 700 dollars to take me back to stock clutch and flywheel. can anyone guess whats going to happen when it goes back to stock. the stock clutch is going to have no pressure either. and im going to get fucked

 

Dumb question, but is it possible the OP got an LSJ clutch or flywheel (even if the box says correct)? Its been a few months but I remember reading a post about having to use the throwout bearing setup depending on which car the clutch was meant for.... let me see if I can find it.

EDIT: Found the thread and it made it sound like it would still work, just you'd have peddle enguagment height issues.

 

i have a clutch masters stg 4 and their aluminum flywheel with over 7,000 miles on it i never had a problem with the clutch now the trans on the other hand thats a whole different story

 

Oh? Do tell...

 

UPDATE

dealership has one more day to either fix it or watch the masters. its going to hahn. gunna get turbo upgrade while its in. my buddys are gettin ready for their 9 hour drive it illinois. god do i love my friend

really wish you guys would have responded to last thread i made. only person i talked to said he had to get some kinda rod adapter because the clutch would not fully engage. i feel bad now about badmouthing clutchmasters thinking it couldnt be my GM mastertechnition who was working on it fuckig up. anyway to change my thread??

 

Deleting it is about the only way .....unless a mod will do it for you.

 

I absolutely love my stage 4. Works flawless has excellent pressure. No complaints

 

Well... any news?

 

That is awesome good choice!

 

Any new updates?!?

 

I just got my clutch masters FX300 installed and I am having the EXACT SAME PROBLEMS. I can barely get the car into any of the gears from a stop and when I do, the car starts creeping like I'm letting out on the clutch peddle. I really have to put all my weight on the clutch peddle in order to get it to shift. Can someone please help me out on why this clutch is not working out or should I just get a SEPC clutch coming and return the clutch masters? Any help would be greatly apperciated!!!

 

After reading this I'm glad I went with a spec 3+, which arrived yesterday!!
