I don't know why but, I laughed my ass off when I read the second post. I know I should feel like a dumbass but I cant help it lol. The mechanic "explained" to me that there are "special" springs in an awd clutch that are not in a 2wd clutch. He explained to me that in an awd car more strain is put on the clutch and tranny from wholeshots and such because in a 2wd car you would just burn out but in an awd car it grips. He told me that the clutch put in was ment for a 2wd car not an awd car and therefore took a shit earlier than normal(I had the clutch for about 35,000 miles). So if I'm understanding correctly...2wd/awd it doesn't matter? A clutch is a clutch? O boy mr. mechanic is f***ing lucky he is on vacation right now.
