Driving to lunch on Friday, pulled into my apt parkin lot, engine/tranny made a loud bang, and started knocking and shaking like crazy. I shut it off, got out and found 2 bearing (pretty sure they're bearings) laying on the ground. Lots of coolant and oil was pouring out of the bottom. Got it towed to my friends house now. He's a mechanic. I'm not sure if I wanna put more $ into it, or just part it out. Car still rolls while in park .This is the 96 auto by the way.
I'll keep you posted. Erich. This post has been edited by Badkarma: Aug 16, 2009 - 4:18 PM |

if you like the car, spend the money and just get another engine. probably cheaper than getting another car
