That sucks. I predict someone is going to snap. Will it be you, the tech, or the shop owner? Who will be first?

Dont let em off that easy. If they're going to rebuild transmisions, they need to learn how to do em right. You paid the money for it to be right.

And I hope when you get your car back you don't find the carpet all dirty and the driver's side door handle broken off. That's how I got my car back after one wreck (insurance wouldn't pay for me to do the work, only an approved shop) and even though I didn't pay for the work, I raised hell when I got my car back finally. It took a month and a half for them to replace a control arm and 2 wheels. And they forgot to center the steering wheel first before doing an alignment so the steering wheel faces right when straight.

The point is, don't let them get away with garbage like this. Rebuilding a transmission shouldn't be this complicated, especially for a tranmission shop. Sorry you're in this mess, man. It's frusturating.
