Eion's Automotive on Westlake or Porbug in Lynnwood.  Hard to understand how
you burn up a clutch in 500 miles, maybe he/she rested their foot on the
pedal the whole time.

Subject: Seattle Vanagon Transmission Service Recommendation?

So... a friend did something terrible to my brand-new, <500mi clutch.
Burning smell and shuddering when shifting. I assume the plates are warped
or friction  surfaces damaged. It drives, but not for long, I suspect.

So, where does the list recommend? I have an appointment with Peace Vans,
but that's two weeks from now.=
