[QUOTE="cmm3, post: 16988840, member: 205248"] I've only had my 04 convertible a few months, and she is the first manual transmission in about 30 years, but after a few hours and a couple hundred miles, I have the feeling she is due for a clutch and/or transmission work. Not from anything I've done - it was like riding a bicycle - but more likely because the clutch has 15 years and 40k miles on it. It was replaced 15 years ago by Ford at about 20k miles, and I'm currently at 66k miles. Shifting feels 'notchy' not smooth like I remember my old 84 GT, and there are audible and tactile bumps from the driveline when entering any gear from neutral. I'm going to take it to the local Ford service center in Katy,TX and to my old Mach1 mechanic for professional diagnosis. I'm curious what the ballpark range is for a new stock clutch install so i know how expensive a gift i need to give my wife to soften the shock. ;-) 'Colette' is a bone stock 04 convertible. [/QUOTE]
