i think your opinion is wrong. You just need to let it go now and suck up the $ you had to pay for breaking your trans. Adding an aftermarket clutch that engages harder adds stress to the trans and increases shockload when engaging to the next gear. Toyota engineers the trans for daily driving. It was your choice to add an LSD and grabby clutch, there is a reason shops make you sign a waiver before installing aftermarket parts. Tell me one dealership that will crack open a toyota transmission to add the LSD, I know ours won't. There is a reason for that. Tolerances are so tight in engines and transmissions aftermarket items installed are iffy to begin with. What would the fith gear syncro have anything to do with the LSD install anyways?

And why did u choose to add the lsd? for daily driving there really is no benefit. I havent seen you at an autocross yet or time attack. I havent cracked open my trans yet and I actually race my car.

Ptuning is not at fault imo, they excell in every install and odviously they would correct the problem if they thought they were at fault, but there is a gray area of 500 miles of misuse that is a case closed point.

 

Good luck on this one drax, just wish people read this from the beginning instead of hopping in and assuming things.

 

fitzgerald toyota just did kanundrum's LSD installation.

 

Now that i think about it, I agree with whoever said this should be closed until an actual resolution is reached, ovbiously anyone chiming in here besides the parties involved is speculating and none of it is worth its weight (including my personal opinions i have posted).

 

I like sap, but ask him how many times he had to go back there for his sc. And go look it up but i have a hard time seeing how and lsd install has anything to do with a 5th gear syncro.

 

anyways. If it's fixed now, leave it alone and see u at the track. Hopefully u didnt spend $3k to play around in the street.

 

i'm fairly certain that if 5th gear installation has nothing to do with the LSD installation, the central atlantic scion field technician along with mike medella could have pushed for this repair to be covered under a warrantied claim. especially since they really were there trying for both p-tuning and my sake.

 

Sorry to be a little off topic, but why does TRD offer a LSD if no dealer is willing to crack open the trans to install it?

 

beats me. Ours won't do it. TRD is aftermarket. Why risk cars coming in with broke transmissions? not cost effective. Look at the issues with the supercharger, that's why Toyota says they won't sell the car with it on it.

 

justin, we will install the lsd. its on our trd pricng sheet. lol

 

wow... damn... So my question is who bent your drive shaft? That's who you should be _____ing at if that is true...

Guys can we all just say like sucks to have this happen to you Drax instead of ripping him apart? I mean if you were in his position and you got something installed somewhere and then something broke related to what was installed, what would you assume? My first thought would definitely be the last people to mess with that part.

Now I am not saying f*** ptuning or blame their as$es... I am saying just understand what Drax is going through right now.

P-tuning did a really cool thing to posting up their response... I commend them for that and apologize for my previous post...

 

So please let me know the benefit of making blanket statements that are only based on a single instance?

 

On a lighter note:


I'd fly my butt back to Virginia and pay to see that class. Imagine your everyday grease money/gearheads decorating cupcakes

Then again, dont do it, you'd all get fat on all the goodies they would be bringing in

 

Sorry to hear that but we are with you.....lets raise a voice against ptuning's bad service!!!

 

Damn... none of this wouldn't happen if are cars came stock with lsd =/

 

you didn't read the whole thread huh... prepare to get bashed....

read the whole thread,

i like alex appologize for jumping on ptuning before hearing their side of the story, i wish that this gets resolved by both parties.

 

Yeah you needa read the whole thing to give an input or it'd be really biased haha

 

he's 16, give him a break

 

why bring age into everything? at 16 he's legally able to realize what he says and accepts responsibility for what he says so drop the age thing it wasn't needed
