WOOHOO! Got my car back! Whoops, went right back in. Add me to the dead tranny club

Ok, so you guys that read my other threadt about the street sign, and the oil leak blah blah blah...

Ive been telling my service manager for the past 40,000 miles that my tranny was going to go.

So 3 days ago, my car is FINALLY done after almost 3 weeks, it turned out to be the rear main seal. Which im glad i have Acura Care, otherwise it would have been $1000 for repairs. You have to remove the tranny to get to the seal.

I also broke 2 motor mounts again. Whoops.

So, i told my service guy that the tranny was really acting poorly but since it didnt really cause a "problem" there was nothign he could do, and i understand that, and im cool with that.

So today, 3 days after i get her back, BOOM!!!!!! my tranny dies.

Please, please, please kill me.

Car is back in the shop for another few weeks, they are so slammed with work i just cant get it sooner.

So here i am, once again, im my dodge stratus loaner until further notice.

At least i got to put my Iridium plugs in, my '02 tails, and my new Rotora brakes on.

The brakes made a huge difference, the plugs did too, not much power gain if any but EPA is better and she starts better than new.
