13bke26 Posted October 2, 2011 Author Report Posted October 2, 2011 i got no idea why the charged more then they quoted...put it this way, the final bill is approx $2000 more then quoted... yeah they were saying it was just oil from the box, ill be majorly pissed if its a loose fitting or something fitting related, but if its from the bellhousing I'm going to check the pump.... as for the rubbing inside the bellhousing, I'm not sure what that could be, ill check that out when it all comes back...and no park, ill pull the shifter cable off the box and try and manually put it into park, if it doesnt go in ill be sending it back to the box rebuilder for answers and a repaired g/box Quote
LXY-642 Posted October 2, 2011 Report Posted October 2, 2011 f@$k. $2,000 more then they quoted. That's insane. Taking it elsewhere after the gearbox issue is sorted? Hopefully it's an easy fix. And if not then hopefully the gearbox builder don't mess you around. Quote
13bke26 Posted October 2, 2011 Author Report Posted October 2, 2011 well I'm thinking about taking it elsewhere to get tuned, don't know yet.....there tuning side of things is really good..but i will be asking for a definate price before the car even gets there and a definate time frame for sure.. Yeah hopefully its an easy fix Quote
13bke26 Posted October 4, 2011 Author Report Posted October 4, 2011 went and had a look at the car today, man the motor sounds sweeeet as, but the gearbox does not.. the noise is pretty loud and the leak is pretty bad.. pick it up this week and will get this box done soon Quote

13bke26 Posted October 5, 2011 Author Report Posted October 5, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKda5U0lZ4g this is the vid of the noise...got a few ideas what it could be so when i get it back saturday ill have a look Quote
SLO-030 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 Thats sounds f@$king horrible! Good to hear it up and running. Even better when the issues are taken care of. :happy: Quote
MR KE30 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 your a gamer man than me running it for that long with that noise belting out of it !!! sounds like its in the bellhousing cracked flex plate ???? Quote
13bke26 Posted October 6, 2011 Author Report Posted October 6, 2011 yeah I'm not going to be running it any more until we actually go to fix it... yeah my bet is that its something to do with the flex plate hitting the bellhousing or something.. it don't idle right because it isnt tuned Quote
kickn5k Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 i got no idea why the charged more then they quoted...put it this way, the final bill is approx $2000 more then quoted... Unless the original quote was $20,000 then that's ok. Did you get the quote written down? Technically you can only move 10% from an original quote(from what I've been told) I'd tell um that's crap and that you'll be having a chat to the ACCC. It's good to hear that it's running though.

13bke26 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Posted October 7, 2011 quote was verbal.. get it back tomorrow so ill check it all out then Quote
13bke26 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Posted October 8, 2011 got the car back today...will do the box when i can be bothered...che said they had tried all the things i said to fix the box so looks like its gonna come straight out and sent away Quote
BUZ440 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Posted October 8, 2011 Keep at it mate, I'm sure when she is running, you will have the biggest smile Quote
