Unhappy Who can solve the riddle?
I spin and spin and spin some more -
Don't get me wrong I've never flown a plane.
I go 'whir whir, woo woo woo' when depressed,
And I'll cost four figures to fix.

My rear wheel bearings. And for those of you thinking "...but that won't cost four figures to repair...", you've never seen me work on a car!

Happy New Year!

There's more to a clutch than just a clutch.

Throw Out Bearing, or possibly a pilot bearing, or possibly torque tube bearings.

Definately a bearing of some sort.

thats what you get for launching a turbo

Crap, bring it down, might as well get it all done with the other stuff.

See you soon, I'll have a room and pizza for you.

Take Care!

Your engine lost a rod bearing, the engine turns over but the bearing is spun?

it's the clutch! At least on a 968, it'll only take about 2-hours to replace .
