Want to give you guys a heads up. I ended up contacting the Tysons Corner Toyota and they don't seem to mind cars having engine mods and they want very minimum labor cost for clutch/throwout bearing. I still haven't gotten the work done, but I'm scheduled for the 2nd week of March. It seems like they have a dedicated group of guys that work on it and they do it in batches. |

Seems like the failure thread is getting a lot of hits. I just recently took mine in, but haven't got the car back yet. Any updates from people who got their cars back locally? Everything still ok?
