Jesus is this a reputable place? How'd you hear about them and I would NEVER go back for sure. I hope your install is right so you never have to deal w/ those ******** again!!!

Oh and if it hasn't even been touched, I'd pick it up and go elsewhere!!!

Well, in case anyone cares heres the latest.

I DID get my car back on that Friday. They said that it would be ready by 10:00 so I cruised by there around 9:30 on the way to the junkyard and it was sitting out front off of the lift. I waited for them to call me and they did around 10:30. I picked it up and the price was alot higher than it was supposed to be! They taxed the job which they werent supposed to, they added limited slip additive which they werent supposed to be because Im running RP and told them not to AND they charged my 50 F*CKING DOLLARS for the shims! So total came out to about $415.00 and was originally $325. Anyway, money is not the real issue even though thats bullsh*t. I got in the car and drove away, I was just happy as hell to get my car back. After about 20 minutes of driving it I realized that the gears are howling. Im not sure if they are howling bad or not because I have never heard another car howl so I cant say how bad it is but its definetly noticable if your sitting in the car looking for the sound. Now Im debating just dealing with it or taking it back to them. What should I do? Also, is it bad that they added more additive after already running RP? Thanks guys.

Nah I dont want to make a huge deal out of it... I just expect parts to be installed once and be correct the first time. Im sure they will look at it for free but they are going to want to charge me for new fluid n sh*t. Im going to call them in the morning tomorrow and see what they say, but I just dont want them to have my car for another freakin month doing this.

there should not be any charge for fluid....there should be no noises....also I would dispute the higher charges and I know in my state you can't tax labor. but first I would contact the BBB and file a complaint and also with your county/city who the company gets their business license from
