burning clutch...
Hey,
I modded my Evo MR 06 three months ago. I changed aftermarket intake, UICP, LICP and exhaust. After that, there were a little smell from clutch several times. I thought i was normal. But, when I came back to my home today in the morning, I felt the clutch adjustment was released than before. it felt there is no friction gear and clutch. then, it burned with strong burning smell and smoke. it does not work at all.
I have question about replacing clutch.. my clutch was gone two hours ago with sell and smoke. I think I have to change my clucth.
Here is question.
Can I get a warranty for replacing clutch??
Does my insurance cover this? my insurace is all coverage. not liability.
is it better to go mitsubichi service for fixing it??
Thank you

what does full coverage has anything to do with your clutch? insurance covers collision damage, not mechanical damage, please use your judgement.
And with the little mods that you have, how can the clutch not last? did you abuse the clutch? I have 55k mile and I have more mods than you and still on stock clutch.

There are a number of spelling and grammatical errors in your post so forgive me if I misinterpreted something, but I would make sure that your clutch pedal is properly adjusted. I think there is a set screw on the adjustment for the pedal and if the adjusting bolt is loose, you may not be fully detaching the clutch between shifts and burning the clutch up. If the adjustment is loose you may be moving the pedal further out of alignment with every use to the point where the clutch is not releasing at all. Even if you have absolutely abused and thrashed the clutch, you should not be having the issues you are having, something else is damaged or out of alignment.

Dont blame me. I am actually a newbie here. I had no ideas about this horrible situation. And It was first time my car broke down. So, I was asking, learning and taking professional advice . Now I got lots of advices. I think I have to buy some aftermarket clutch. I still have no idea about buying a clutch. I dont even know about a clutch component, flywheels and flexplate. I searched many threads and it is hard to choose an aftermarket clutch to me.
Anyways, thanks for replying.
