well I went my tranny in to get a new rear seal installed { that's where the oil was coming out at } the tranny ran really good until
it blew the real seal. so I drop it off, 30 days later, he calls me up and tells me, well I really don't want to put a seal in it and then you have problems, etc.etc
I clearly told him, if you think its going to be to much forget it, I lost my union job I had, I just started working after a year out of work. i'm not making the same money I was before, I really can't afford a big repair bill right now, just change the seal, I have too much going on now, again he said, I don't want you to have problems etc.etc.etc. I asked how much would it cost, oh don't worry , you know ill take care of you, i'm like well it cant be too bad, it was running good, how bad can it be $300-$400. that was wishful thinking, I get back oh this is screwed up this gear looks bad, etc.etc.etc. its $1200, I told him I cant do that right now, he then tells me well i'll put your stuff in a box.
in a box? since i'm not fixing it , I guess he wont put it back together again, is this normal? I have taken my tranny to him in the past
and a complete overhaul was only $800. I feel like, i'm being duked, the problem is, or the way I feel better said, is that no matter what is wrong with a tranny, even if its a simple $200 dollar repair, their always going to tell you a grand or more,
please notice I did not mention ANY NAMES, and no, it is not a vendor from this board, I now wish I did buy from a vendor here, I know there are good vendors here. just frustrating, had I known he would not put my tranny back together if I said no, I would have told him just the seal. thanks for letting me vent.
