Just had flywheel replaced *sigh* more problems

I had my car returned to me after having the flywheel replaced under warranty. I have now had the car for 22 days cpo mcs 2007 with 43000 miles.

The transmission whines in third and fourth gear like a jet engine now. Also the car chatters and grinds engaging in reverse and first gear.

Please advise on what could be wrong and what I need to do at the dealership.

repairs so far.

ps steering wheel popping.
a/c surging.
valve cover gasket leaking
flywheel needing replacement.

Wow that's a lot of issues! How many days has it been in the shop? Have you asked them to buy it back?

Maybe you can call MINIUSA and complain to them. They may be able to pressure the dealer into doing a buyback if they won't do it.
