What does Pontiac have to do with all this? confused


He has already pre-sacrificed a firebird in a flaming garage sacrifice, doesn't that cover the goat sacrifice? [/quote

All that did was piss off the wife. She didn't think it was funny when I said she had a true FIREbird... panic They told me $350 for a filter change at the dealer that is installing the lines and the mechanic thought it would be a waste of time and money if the trans is indeed smoked...


How do they justify $350 to drop the the pan and change the filter???

Over $100 for trans fluid, who knows how much for a filter through a dealer plus the gasket, doesn't matter if it has anything in it or not. I am sure the labor is $150 on the schedule... work


It needs $100+ in fluid regardless and they would probably charge the same labour to pour it in so the true cost is a pan gasket and filter.

Pulling the pan has the added advantage of telling you whether you need to just continue on pulling the trans.
