Kept hearing an intermittent grinding sort of noise in reverse so I decided it was time to take her in to AAMCO to have the tranny checked out (still under warranty). Well, the tranny itself is fine. But it appears that the front diff is shot. Labor to take it apart, determine the problem, rebuild it, reinstall it: $420.00. Cost of parts: anyone have any idea?
What sucks is that they have to take it apart to determine what needs to be fixed, then the parts have to be ordered. So I'm probably looking at downtime of two weeks or more.
Anybody have any thoughts, suggestions, a good idea to collect the insurance money?

Michelle,
Hang in there. I'll let you know if you're getting a good deal. Mine's in the shop now for the exact same deal.
My remedy was to buy a second SVX so I didn't have to be without, when one went into the shop.
