Does that table include a list of computer viruses that you sent to my computer?

If you're in Iran, why is your IP address coming back as Kansas City Missouri?

Re: Ask for Experts' Judgment Sign In

You could just type your questions in here. I'd be more than happy to answer the questions in this forum than through email.

Re: Ask for Experts' Judgment Sign In

Clutch pedal, return springs, and input splines usually don't go bad unless the driver is abusive. So far I haven't replaced any.

Most of the clutch system problems we see at our shop are clutch discs, clutch release bearings, and hydraulics.

If the release bearing goes bad, concentric slave leaks, or clutch is worn out, the vehicle usually gets a clutch kit( clutch disc, pressure plate, pilot bearing, concentric slave cylinder (if equipped), clutch fork pivot ball (if equipped), clutch fork (if worn), the flywheel machined or replaced, and a rear main bearing seal. This all depends on how things are when the transmission is removed.

It just depends on the vehicle and the driver. Not all clutch systems fail the same way.

The cost of clutch replacement or clutch related parts servicing depends on the vehicle. A full blown clutch service is usually around 500-800 US dollars.

Thanks alot
Could you please estimate and list the repair time and costs for a Peugeot 206? The separated information will be very useful.

Re: Ask for Experts' Judgment Sign In

What kind of repair?

The only problem with your question is that we don't have that vehicle here in the states. Don't have labor time or cost of part information for whatever repair needs to be performed.

Re: Ask for Experts' Judgment Sign In

Thanks for your help. I need some data in order to run the reliability and availability simulation. Could you please fill the repair time and costs columns for a specific vehicle which the repair information are available in the US? Let me know what is the max power of the engine.

Re: Ask for Experts' Judgment Sign In

Ok...this is starting to not make any sense. First you write up a table that warrants general responses assumingly from many vehicle platforms.

Now you want to narrow down your chart to a specific vehicle? Shouldn't you have done your research and knew which vehicles to ask about?

Sometimes we don't do enough clutch jobs on a specific vehicle to understand the pattern and failures rates of specific clutch components for that vehicle.

Labor and part prices are going to vary by area, so prices are going to be different.

Re: Ask for Experts' Judgment Sign In

Actually I'm looking for failure rates, time between failures and repair time and costs for a friction dry clutch just to run my reliability and availability simulation model. The input data are not that much sensitive. I just want some reliable data in these field on a specific type of vehicle uses hydraulic dry friction clutch. It doesn't matter which type of car we are going to study, but also the important thing is the availability of such information. Do you have these sorts of information?!

Re: Ask for Experts' Judgment Sign In

You mean the ones trying to build a nuclear arsenal to attack us with?

You mean the ones (Hezbollah) supplying arms to the terrorists so they can attack us and out allies?

Oh, we just love you guys.

Re: Ask for Experts' Judgment Sign In

Exactly HT.....

I'm sure most Iranians are good people but when your government supplies terrorists with weapons and also harbors terrorists then why should we support people that try to coordinate attacks on us? It's really a bad deal that this effects the decent Iranians but that's the way it goes. If your government would help try crush these Islamic Extremists instead of supporting them then the US would send aid and help out.

As for your question I'm sure there are some really good Iranians and most of us understand it's your government, military, and some civilians that are the problem. With the tactics that these terrorists use it's hard to know who we can trust. I personally have nothing against any honest Iranian.
