It's always a good idea when parts are replaced at a shop such as this , to request that the old parts be returned to you.

I didn?t take any pictures when I got there... But I saw the burned clutch... the medal came blue because it was too hot.
For the $$$ I don't really want to look at it... But really right now i think i spent around 1200$ CAN for all of it...
+ Today, when I drove to my job (during the traffic jam), the clutch has started to vibrate again... I will definitely go to another shop to get everything fixed... This mustang is such a problem or maybe it's always the labor...

In all this, do you know if the flywheel was turned/machined and a new pressure plate installed? This is something that should always be done with a new clutch disc.

If i were you i would go and town my car back to my house and would never take it to them or anyone that knows them again. Buy yourself some jack stands, 2 floor jacks and some simple tools and do the job yourself. For the money you have spent. You could have bought a rebuilt trans with a warranty and a clutch and just replaced everything.

Yeah well first of all I don't have all the nesseceray tools... Second, there is no place to work ( around the house ) and third I wouldn't event know what to do.. I guess it would be probably worst thant what they do... But I agree that if I would be able to do it... i'll to it by myself.. I would save SOOOO much money! the labor is so freaking expensif!

What exactly was it you saw that was blue? The surface of the flywheel?

OMG! What does the other side look like in this same area. That almost looks like what a "twisted" or "bowed" trans input shaft would create. That would also ream out the pilot bushing.
Is there a similarly worn area 180* or so out on the opposite side of the friction disc?

I talked with a co-worker of mine about this situation. There could also be a pressure plate diaphram spring issue. It's gonna have to be torn down and inspected for damage.
