Just got my timing belt done yesterday.
I notice when I started up my car it jumped into reverse even with my foot on the clutch.Because they left it in reverse when they parked it.
I reversed the car and it seemed that my stick shift felt loose and when I went to step on the clutch it seemed like my clutch pedal was wierd, it sorta felt I had to go all the way up on my clutch pedal before the transmission engaged like I had too much play in the pedal I told the repair shop and the said they did nothing with my clutch...now when I shift the gears my foot has to almost go all the way up before the car shifts,,,I just had a new clutch installed less than 15000 miles ago...-now when they lowered my cars motor to get to the harmonic balancer could have they damaged the linkage? I know what my clutch feels like --and its not the same!!
