Default IM READY TO CRY!

ok here it goes. first off i never bring my car to mechanics. a few months my trans was makin a wierd *** noise. since i know very little about transmissions i had to bring it to a shop. so i brougt it in and they replaced some stuff, that cost like 700$. then i got it back and it was still making a noise, but it wasnt as loud. so i took it back and they mechanic said that the gears needed to break after about 400 miles. so after 400 miles i took it back and siad "still makin the noise". then they assured me that it was normal, b/c they were mixing new parts, and old parts. so like last thurs it started making like the same noise but extremely loud. so i bring it back to the place, and now they tell me that i need a new trans! im so mad b/c first i spend 700 and its not even fixed, now i have to get a whole new trans!! they said they can credit me w/ what they fixed before(it that is whats wrong w/ it) and put a new trans if for the difference of pric. but i dont know what to do now.. anybody ever heard of Jasper transmissions?? any good? any help or advie?? please!!

Jasper trtansmission are race transmissions. You dont need one of those unless you have hellacious horsepower.

I wouldnt let them put a new tranny in. Take your hit on the $700 bucks. Buy a rebuild kit and have someone rebuild it and drop it in yourself... save you lots of cash. Did they give you a price for the new trans?

For $1900 you can get a lot.

Do you mind installing your own tranny?

awww dont cry just----

Cheer up, Charlie
Give me a smile
What happened to the smile I used to know
Don't you know your grin has always
Been my sunshine;
Let that sunshine show...

Come on, Charlie
No need to frown
Deep down you know tomorrow is your toy...

When the days get heavy
Never pitter patter
Up and at'em boy

Some day, sweet as a song
Charlie's lucky day will come along
Till that day
You've got to stay strong Charlie
Up on top is right where you belong

Look up, Charlie
You'll see a star
Just follow it and keep your dreams in view
Pretty soon the sky is going to clear up
Charlie,
Cheer up Charlie,do
Cheer up Charlie
Just be glad you're you.
