well heres how my ordeal went.
put it in, bled it, test drove it. all good. topped off the fluid and went home. on the way the pedal got spongy when i was going to down shift. so while i was on the highway i just pumped the clutch every once in a while. (i live 25 miles from my work) so i get home and pump it for id say 10 minutes. check under it and fluid is dripping. so im like ****, did i tighten the bleeder?? well i let it sit over night and got in it saturday afternoon and drove it to my parents. and it was fine.

conn, what color fluid is the tranny leaking? is it gear lube or hydraulic fluid? after i did my clutch the actuator leaked for a while but then it was fine, it was like it bled itself out it was fucked up.

the easiest way would be to take the wheel off, undo the lower ball joint and pop it out of the knuckle. theres 3 15's that hold a bracket on the block, take those out and pull the extension tube out. then remove the old seal and pop the new one in.

Well got back from the autoshow..... the new Cobalt is nice, the seats are pretty keww, and the brakes are nice... MOTOR is very cramped so no big turbo conversions.... But all in all it looks like they changed the stuff that needed to be changed!
All in all I can see myself driving a 4dr SS/TC in that slate grey metallic color!

I gotta' say that the SRT-4 and the MS3 were far better feelin'.... but I'm sure I'll get more for my car at a Chebby dealer.... I think my buddy Casey wants an HHR SS (which we are going to test drive one tomorrow)
