The deathtrap is dying...
my mx-3 is dying. the auto tranny is calling it quits. it's reving up instead of shifting into 2nd and when going into 3rd now. i estimate i can only pull about 1000miles outta the tranny. this means i will not be taking on an extremely active roel in helping to start the Texas, OK, etc mx-3 club. if you have any suggestions on what i can do to possible help my tranny w/o totally replacing it, i'd be very greatful. i don't think another mx-3 is a likely possiblitiy, this one has been nothing but problems unfortantly. i can't imagine my dad would want me to have another.<P>i'll keep you all updated. it might be parted out.<P>i'll be talking to you ranman and sircruz about the club

Just wondering.

Re: The deathtrap is dying...
the car is only worth about 2.5K. getting a new tranny woulnd't be too much less than 2K. i can't replace it myself, so i'm in the hands of the machanic. there are a few other probs with the car also.
