Significant Technical Input
Uh...guys...do you take your ham and eggs to Denny's and have them cook them for you? I haven't worked in a shop in over twenty years that would install customer parts.

I'd guess something happened that required a part that wasn't in stock (something that they broke/ruined) was the time culprit. They probably figured they could recoup their losses on your tranny job. It pays to shop around. Historically I've taken it in the shorts 90% of the time when I've given someone a second chance, so I'm real selective about doing that anymore.

To tell you the truth I've been thinking about posting a little 'how-to' list regarding taking your cars in for service. It's really easy to take your car in for service if you just follow a few guidelines. Give me a week or so to find the time to outline....
