Hey thanks for the support guys!...its great just to be able to help out!.
it has been an interesting morning,but we'll start with some "off topic" from last night just after i mowed the lawn,i went back to pull out some weeds and kicked a rock in the garden....(no laughing at my feet,they dont see the sun much lol)
although this doesnt look to bad...i took pain killers last night to help sleep!...walking and driving is also a BIG problem...im not sure if there broken...i cant move them so its not to good LOL..
Anyhow i rang fedex this morning...they said they would provide the box at no extra charge,so off i went to the airport,arrived at fedex...turns out they give the box...but not the soft packaging!,Damn i didnt bring my ID to get into my work at the airport...so went back home to get...when i got to work...i found out someone had locked the packing room...and as usual nobody
knew the number.....after packing and 80kms of driving i finally got back to fedex before they closed at 11
it turns out that if i had have known which part 2 hours earlier yesturday(friday) you would have had it on your door step monday....
but as its a public holiday here on monday it will be shipped tuesday and will need to be signed buy someone at your house on your wednesday...sorry its the fastest it can get there!,hope it doesnt cause to much hassel(even though i guess it will)
so next time i send you stuff i will know it inside out
it worked out being quit cheap...I'll PM you cost etc
Paul
its nice to know there are people put there that would do anything for ya if they can.
ya ever need anything let me know bro.
Man that sucks about your foot!.. I hope you got it checked out. looks kinda sore!
thank you for all your troubles man.. it means a lot to me.
I cant believe all the trouble you had to go through to get the part shipped!
thats okay if it gets to me by wednesday.. I actually have the day off.. so it works out kinda!
Im going to a concert with my girlfriend later that night.. We were going to spend the whole daytogether. We still can as long as it gets delivered early!! but even still I will have to fix my car before I can do anything.. I dont want to borrow my gf's car for too much longer!
so hopefully it will be delivered wednesday.. I can go to work, fix my supercharger.. come back home and install my SC in my can.. be driving by either late morning.. or early afternoon.
man it sucks not having my own car!! I love my W202!

$62...really!!!.....well i guess it doesnt get replaced very often so its low stock high price?...Originally posted by SLAMMED_C

i just tipped mine into a cup and reused it last time..man that stuff smells!!!
im not sure if the seal is sold seperately,the one i sent you seems to be in good condition,it never leaked(and i have removed it once before)
you will most likely need gasket silicon to seal the cover up again too!...

the project has gone waaay over budget,more so than i ever imagined!!so maybe another month or so(its been a month or so for the last 6 lol) until some results start to show...theres still intake and water/oil lines plus ceramic coating and exhaust wrap and a hole heap of small critical stuff...then dyno!.

yeh.. I asnt too suprised when I was told the price though.. it seems any special oils are expensive!!.. I guess low demand.. high price.Originally posted by 23K

generally no one is going to replace the Kompressor oil in their supercharger... well except someone like me!!
Ive saved mine so far.. and yes it does smell .. damn does it ever!
but I might as well splurge for the new oil while I have it apart.
yeh I should probably seal the front cover.. I have some good sealant for that.
lol.. its gone way over budget huh!!.. like WAAAAAY more over budget.. or just a lil bit!?
I should hope you will do a big write up on the whole install!!
cant wait to see what it all looks like!..
yeh.. gonna need dyno fo sho!

oh man, i know about toe problems. In august, right before soccer season, I sprained my left big toe by stepping sideways on a rug and twisting the toe almost straight sideays. It hurt like a bitch, but i still played on it, thus, it never healed, and i've developed Metatarsalitis. It used to hurt when i just stepped off of the foot, now it hurts all the time. human bodies need to come with warranties. you have any spare metatarsals you can ship out for <100USD?
sounds sore man,Iv never heard of Metatarsalitis?,i cant pronounce it either lol...Originally posted by K_Sport Driver

I'd never heard about it until the nurse practitioner told me i had it. i thought she was stuttering when she said it. hurts like a bitch, but probably doesn't throb as much as your tootsies. i've got a swollen toe, so i'll pass on your offer
Well here is the carnage in full detail!!.....
Here is a comparison to the old clutch and new clutch...
The old and new friction plate....
The old and new coil...
Part Numbers:
-Clutch assembly (with coil and friction plate): A111 097 01 28
-Supercharger oil: 000 989 62 01

and you still have no idea what caused this annihilation? those new parts look nice and shiney, what ended up being the final tab on all the replacement parts?
sidenote: while practicing for indoor soccer, i took a hard shot off my right big toe (i'm a goalkeeper) and jammed it. i now have no functioning big toes. donations welcome.
lol damn...very messy...
there was alot off friction....things got very hot!...
do you think the bearing may have been the intial cause due to the pully kit speed???
it looks like the bearing started to seiz/run dry and the inner race spun on the housing...causing all to melt

Oh I know what caused it!!.. there was too much play in the clutch.. eventually overheated and seized.. blowing it apart!Originally posted by K_Sport Driver

well I think Im looking at under $500 to fix it all... without 23K's help I would have had to buy a whole new supercharger.. that alone is like $2000!!

for sure it was either the clutch itself.. or coil that overheated and ended up melting.. propbalby jamming things up and causing things to seize up.
