Hi everyone, I just purchased an 07 MCS 6spd ( 63K miles ), 2 weeks ago from a used car dealer. When I bought the car, I immediately took the car back the next day due to a noise coming from the transmission. They told me to take it to Princeton Mini, who then told me it needs a new transmission due to a bearing needing replacement.
The used car dealership told me that I must of done something to it as it definately wasn't like that when I bought it. I test drove the car twice but in rush hour raffic, stop and go. The noide only happens at a constant throttle around 2200rpms, in 4/5/6th gears. I have a warranty that will only cover the replacement of the bearing and not and entire transmission.
I got into a huge fight with the dealer last night and basically need to find a transmission shop to fix it.
Does anyone here have a shop that they could recommend with in New Jersey. I am located in South River, local would be nice, but am willing to travel.
Thanks for any help you can give.

 

I would contact Eric at Helix in philly 267-335-4337. See if he can help you out, or direct you to a good shop.

George is the owner, when I can't do something to my car, I give it to him. Great shop, honest, and he won't ******** you. Best of all he actually fixes the problem...

I trust Helix as well, that's where I got my sway bar installed.

I'm sorry you had to go through the headache of an (for lack of better words) ******* used car dealership. Keeps us updated!

 

+1 I've known George for over twenty years, good people.
