Get pissy, make sure they want less to do with you and you with them. That's total BS and I in your shoes would bring a hell of a pain. They're just jerking you around.</div>

An email is good so you have a paper trail but if you go there in person it's a lot more forceful. Especially if you make it known in front of other buys that they sold you crap parts. Just make a scene, it's an a**holeish thing to do but a lot better than getting screwed out of a bunch of money.

No fluid going to the tranny cooler, soemethin could be up with your torque converter, make sure you did bolt the converter back onto the flex plate.

yes blue the torque converter was bolted. also i had to have my local garage come over to my house and look at the car. and he also told me my pump is out in the tranny . we started it up put in gear nothing so we left it in drive pulled one of the tranny hose's off and no fluid . so the tranny is eaither bad or the torque is bad . so my garage guy called them told them whats going on and now the onwer of the junk yard is going to call my garage and talk with him about this. and this is all over a (DIY) job for a junk yard part this is bull__IT!! i'll never go back to this junk yard agine after this is all setteled. fire1.gif

MY first auto tranny crapped out at 62,000 miles. My second was at 125,000 miles. Do the math - yours is at 68,000.

Tiburons also call for SP-III ATF available at your local dealership.
