Here's hoping that's the last of the issues and you get some time to enjoy it and fall in love with it.

Here's hoping the next guy he rips off is gainfully employed by a motorcycle club and does us all a favour by teaching him a lesson.

'Caveat Emptor' - harsh, but true.

Must have some serious coin if you're throwing money!

I had the same issue before though. A mechanical inspection would have nutted a fair amount of issues.

I can't point fingers at anyone except the tune but now to make my week worse I picked it up Saturday with a new slave and the clutch didn't feel right what so ever.

Got 30 mins down the road once some heat was in it and got massive clutch slip in all gears. Took it back straight away. Everyone's pointing fingers saying the clutch now needs replacing but was fine find when the box was out. Hmmm

7k in 1200km's. And 7 weeks without it. Trying todo everything once do it right but I'm considering my options to strip it stock to try recover some of that cash and move on with another car. Seems to be one thing after another.

Bruhhh... In all honesty, what a lemon.

Edit: this car smells all too fishy to me, and your tuner should have known about the slipping clutch after he road test it. Clutches are either good or their not, their is no in between. This 'Lemloo' doesn't add up at all...

Thats a downer. Was it the stock spec LS7 clutch? As far as stripping it back to stock, the stock LS3's should have the LS7 clutch that would be able to handle the power ready to sell off. If you go that way.
