Bummer.
dadgummit!
Maybe Torch can help you find someone that does good reliable work....
I hear desoto collision center does pretty reputable werk
When the tranny went out in our work truck we took it to Spencer Lee's in Senatobia. They'll pick it up and were relative speedy with the job. No problems so far and they give you a waranty on the trans.
Tippett Transmissions in Clarksdale. Ask for Marty.
Thanx y'all. I shld know in the am what the damage is, then I'll start making some calls.
Spencer has had a shop in Horn Lake for over 30 years, good work and good folks.Quote:

Well, we got lucky. Alternator went out n the battery is bad, 451.00 n change, n the car shld be ready tomorrow. Thank heavens for small favors :)
Glad it wasn't worse.
Thought you said it had Tranny problem?

Sat some trannys shift electrically.....if a fan belt breaks.....you cannot even drive some of themQuote:

I'm obviously not a mechanic, n don't know too much bout this stuff, but it just don't sound right to me. But, since I don't know anything about cars, I'm just gonna put my faith into this guy n see what happens.Quote:

I was planning in taking it to who Rees n Spideychick said, cause it wasn't too far, but when the guy said he didn't think it was the tranny, that canceled that out. I looked em up online, n they had a 5 star rating...so hopefully those stars mean something, n I ain't bein taken for a ride.
you got that right. she would have never got out that cheap....Quote:

Ahhh. Thank u G. Like I said, alot I don't know, but I'm learning.
Never can tell about these new vehicles. Friend of mine had a F-150 and transmissions was giving him troubles. Come to find out it was spark plugs, go figure.
One of my pick ups(chevy) broke a fan belt. You guessed it. Killed the battery grave yard dead. Hope that fixes yours, Barbie.
