Is it a clutch problem?

I also pulled it as one unit using a trans jack. I loosened the exhaust at the down pipe from the turbo.

I had to do it twice now because of clutch problems.

It ain't easy, but you'll get it.

while you have the trans out look at your up pipes and turbo mount real well make sure if there are any issues and major leaks you take care of it while the trans is out. Much easier.

the part i'm talking about is under the part you pulled the shifter out of.
FYI, even though I have a shift kit, I don't have to pull it out to get the trans out. Still just have to pull the shifter.

I meant just the nub, obviously not the whole handle thing.

Got the trans, pressure plate & clutch out. Kind of pissed at Harbor freight.... Their deep well standard impact socket set is pretty much complete, but their metric is missing most of the sizes I need.... Namely 15 & 18 mm.

I've seen a lot of sets that exclude the 18mm. But 15? That's just weird.

Yeah, 15 is a really really really common size.

Maybe you got a returned set.

He probably has like 2 19mm.s hah.

OK.... Got transmission pulled, clutch removed and the 10 bolts that mount to the crank shaft. Darn DMF don't want to come off. Any suggestions?

Never mind... Got it.

No, the set don't have any doubles. It's made in China so I'm thinking it's a communist plot.
