I dunno bout that.

My 300D has intermittantly clunked when coming to a stop ever since I have owned it. I just learned to live with it. Then, based on some discussions here a few weeks ago, I decided to replace the vacuum switches. No change still clunks. For the hell of it, I mityvaced both old switches and both new switches. One of the new ones leaks on the normally closed port and one of the old ones leaks on the normally open port when held closed. Installed the 2 non leaking switches (one old, one new) with the 2 new levers and PRESTO!!! No more clunking. It only took me 7 years to solve this problem.

Viva la manual transmissions!!!!
