Eclipseturbo: None taken. I was going over that in my head today, thinking a bit more realistically as far as my money goes. I wouldn't consider myself getting "bent out of shape" about these issues, I'm just trying to get shit taken care of before the problems get to out of hand. I could handle a TSi, just not financially.

Khadgar: I was planning on taking it to Kennedy for the test drive but I will check out that one as well for a second opinion... as long as it won't cost me anything for the opinion, it wouldn't hurt!

I looked at the fluid yesterday. It's not low at all, it's right where it should be and on a white paper towel, the color looked just about right, maybe a TINY bit dirty, but not bad at all. But I will still have the tranny guys look at it, just for safety's sake.

Like I said, I don't have money. Like, none at all, at the moment, becuase as soon as I get my check I am going to be paying a bitch load for a title and tabs on my mazda., plus other bills. So I will probably be broke again. This is why I need to know ASAP if the tranny is bad, or if it's just a matter of the fluid needing to be flushed, because if the tranny is bad, I just want to sell it, and get as much as I can out of it, since clearly I can't afford even a $400 tranny. Besides, I don't think I could trust a used tranny, esp. out of a junk yard.
