leaking oil on transmission housing

Astrosfan · 04-05-2013, 10:23 AM

The dealership told me that the gel in the bushing came out and not to replace it, which is very surprising but ill take good news anyday.

BS, its needs to be replaced. Its no longer effectively doing its job.

what a stupid dealership! the bushing is busted.....

hope that helps.

and too add, i hope its covered under warranty because they order an entire new subframe and have a ton of labor to do.

yeah, after some thought, thats kinda what i was thinking. Im actually tired of dealing with a $1500 repair every other month. This car will be sold by the end of the month, possibly mid May. I need something more reliable and with less repair costs. It was a fun 2 years and the car is a blast to drive. Its time to move on...... im thinking a truck possibly a silverado crew cab so i can actually haul camping gear and my bike and betches.

btw.... carmax offered me $16,000 for my car. below are the details.

-2009 370z

-55k

-great condition

-small dent in front bumper from uninsured illegal (i live in Houston, they are EVERYWHERE)

-custom audio (nav screen, custom false floor and sub, upgraded ID components) not that it will get me more $$$. I will probably sell those separate

-I was in a bad accident a year ago but all cosmetic. They said the frame had been worked on. The rear quarter panels are welded to the frame and had to be replaced. How that constitutes as the frame being worked on I dont know but theres no negotiating with them.
