k so dont bash on me....but this is 100% my fault
ill tell u what happened after i get some info on what the problem is or how to fix it. Bascially my car hit the ride side curb and when it hit i thought my whole right side was ****ed but it was only the rims..... k after that my steering was totally different- when i turn left its normal but anything to do with turning right and i hear a badddddd rattle from my left side rim..... my friend checked and said its either the axle or the coilover hitting my rim.....and i shouldnt drive it..... im waiting tomorrow to see what my other friend says once we lift the car up but till then im worried.........=[ anyone know any info hit me up please! |

lol anyways heres the deal---i didnt tell my mechanic i bumped it on a curb and he thought the people who fixed my axle didnt put the fluids in some part so they towed it into my mechanics friends shop and they said they would put it in a rebuilt transmission for $900 CHEAP!!!! and fix it- while they were fixing it they said one of the axels were different from the other....... and said that the place i took it to didnt get the right axles for my car.......k **** this is weird now bc they dont know i bumped into a curve- i told them it just randomly started happening.....is this legit?

I'm positive that they wouldn't think anything less of you if you told them that you had hit a curb, and now, by not doing so, their diagnosis is way off. instead of looking for bent and broken parts, they're looking for mechanically failed parts. You could spend $900 on a transmission...... and still have all the same problems. It's unlikely it's your transmission. I would tell them what actually happened. --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
