VAST Performance
« on: June 23, 2008, 12:04:24 AM »
So as some may know I've recently been having issues with the clutch.  After getting it torn out of the A4 here in jersey I sent it back to VAST and they looked at it but couldn't figure it out.  They sent it back to the manufacturer.  Apparently there was oil residue on the disk.  This glazed over and the clutch never broke in.  The manufacturer thought the clutch had about 500 miles on it until prince informed them it had 15k!  Long story short they were willing to re-line the clutch disk for $100 shipped.

Sucks to double pay for install but what cha gunna do?
I guess its time to double check that rear main seal.

Anyways kudos to vast.
