Almost 3 weeks to do this epic list of jobs:
1: take old gearbox out
2: put new clutch in
3: put new gearbox back in.

i hope they dont expect me to pay for it.

An explanation would be in order for this to make any sense.

I was having gearbox trouble 5 weeks ago. Taking off in first the car was shuddering and squeling a bit, 4th gear was throwing itself out. I purchased a gearbox from Dstocks about 3 weeks ago, overnight delivery. Since then, all they have done is taken the car for a drive, told me what I already knew and then taken the old box out. What they have left to do it change over the LSD, driveshafts and put the new box back in. I've been given 5 different days when they said it will be ready, every time they've had a different excuse.
