250 miles down and its getting better and better.
At first it felt like the pucks on the clutch disk were uneven but now its smoothing out.
I think the guy who did the job didn't tighten the exhaust back to the hanger. It clatters. I guess ill jack it up and look.
Its common for a clutch to have un even surface on a new clutch like u have stated it will get better

@beardo, keep that transmission full of oil if it's leaking, I had a bearing go out in my getrag 260 before I found out about that, I definitely saved it but now I have a grind noise at a certain RPM. thankfully getrag 260's are tanks and I drive an e30 :D

also you might have to jack your car up to get to the fill hole. there should also be labling on the side of your transmission saying what kind of oil or indicating, if not make sure through other means.

the basic test for a lot of transmissions like this is to simply stick your finger in and if you feel liquid at the bottom of your finger then there's enough oil in there.
Yeah I add oil sometimes but when I stick my finger in I definitely feel oil so I figure it's good, sometimes I make a grinding noise but it's only when being ridden hard
