Be very aware of using the Mr. Transmission franchise for auto repairs. I learned my leason when I was over $3000 poorer and had to have the dealer fix my vehicle when they got through with it.

Should have asked me that 20+ years ago.
No more repair chains for me. I have learned my lesson.
Well, sue their asses off. Had you been reading the threads here, or had you asked, you might have saved the money.
If you have a FWD based car, you should have gone to Mr. Transaxle.

I forgot to mention a story about trannys. My brother has an S-10 2-door, and has had the engine rebuilt TWICE and the tranny rebuilt TWICE. When the tranny went out the third time, I suggested we call around the junkyards to find a replacement tranny.
We found one - three of us spent about 3 hours yanking the old one and installing the used one. He's put more miles on that tranny than the two rebuids previous.
Interesting sidenote: his is a V-6/auto/2-wheel drive. I have an Isuzu Trooper with the same Chevy V-6, but mine is a 4WD/auto, and I have 40,000 more miles (almost
200k) and I've NEVER had any major engine or tranny problems.Join the Discussion
