Re: Lot's to do (typical probs)
Code 3 always had quality control issues from what I remember but no drivability quirks on my car. Some owners returned the pulleys for clearance problems between the pulley and clutch. My pulley wasn't square to the clutch but worked fine so I kept it. Then Code 3 disappeared. The shop that pressed in the bearing aggravated the "out of round" and loose condition. If it doesn't come apart, which I don't see happening, it's staying on the car for now but I think it's going to the junk pile sooner than later. It rattles at idle but I can't hear it while driving. Perhaps when the supercharger is engaged it doesn't move on the rivets. One thing is certain, after driving with the stock pulley for a few days, I'm addicted to boost. Choices: Fix it, 178, 181, 185, Eurocharged Code 3 style pulley or be unhappy. I went with the Code 3 for one reason and one reason only. I could do it myself. Every time a shop touches my car something goes wrong. Paying for a shop to do damage ...... No words.
