    Guess who just spent a portion of his tax return!
    <--- This guy

    So after all seem to have failed and car refuses to shift into gear now.... I called up Joe, Awesome guy! Only 2 of the nicest mechanic Ive meet since I moved to toronto.
    Joe introduced me to the crew down at the shop and gave me a nice tour of the facility. It was pretty cool, we was just talking about how I have never seen a s550 and here at the end of the shop he has one sitting there.!

    Well got a whole new list of parts from Joe at a pretty great price
    Centerforce dual friction clutch
    New FRPP hardware kit
    Brand new O.E hydraulic release bearing
    And a Use flywheel already machined

    All parts should be ready by tomorrow!
    Cost price 1543.

    Can't afford down time with my logistics business, gotta get her done right now!

    Well not up and running yet. Gotta swing by Mr Ricks place and have him take care of her.
    Well, the last shop admitted they messed up the install, gave me back my money and wanted nothing more to do with it.. They started at 12 and finished at 7 (shop closes at 5) I basically went for launch at 2 so I guess the following all happened while i was away;
    So they admitted of using a disk wheel and sand paper to "surface" my flywheel and broke a bolt in the flywheel and attempted to use a bolt and nut to fix that.. that would explain the vibration...
    and 1 of 2 support bolt snapped when they tried removing the old shifter. so they drilled a hole and drop a nut and bolt to support it.


    Never again Am I bringing a car to anyone but Rick or Dasilva

    Oh my god! What the hell kind of micky mouse shop was this. Sorry to hear how badly your car got butchered up. Between Rick and Joe, you'll be taken care of.

    Indeed, I have learn my lesson!

    First time ever getting a transmission job done.... And obviously got burned. Oh well we all learn one day. Last thing I wanted was to get this car butchered after the 96 I purchased in toronto, that was completely rotted to bits...
