Re: 93 YJ auto transmission quandary
 

I am not a lawyer (didn't like the eternity in Hell clause) but in a case
like this if you want satisfaction the "most reasonable" thing to do is to
offer to let the shop make things right. You go back there and tell them
that the transmission has bands, that you want adjusted. If you don't give
them a chance to make things right, then you have less leverage for asking
for a refund. Sure they have no business being in business if they are
idiots, but anyone can make a mistake.

As far as the fluid type is concerned, if DC is now recommending a fluid,
that is different and much more expensive than the factory fluid, then the
shop owner has a right to question whether this is reasonable, and to impose
an added charge when the customer wants it. Lots of the chains have small
print that says which fluid they are willing to include in their standard
service charge.

If you let bands slip for too long then they get glazed or worn to the point
where replacement is indeed necessary.

Re: 93 YJ auto transmission quandary
 

I might disagree depending on how he requested the service. If he asked for
the service recommended by DC for his '93 then that price includes the ATF+4
which DC recommends (a competent mechanic would know the fluid specs have
changed). If he said I want the $19.95 fluid change special utilizing
recycled waste Red Chinese Tractor fluid then that is another matter.

Paul, If you need the diagrams that go with the written directions just send
me your e-mail address where you can receive attachments.... (and remind me
it is for a '93 32rh band adjustment)

Re: 93 YJ auto transmission quandary
 

I might disagree depending on how he requested the service. If he asked for
the service recommended by DC for his '93 then that price includes the ATF+4
which DC recommends (a competent mechanic would know the fluid specs have
changed). If he said I want the $19.95 fluid change special utilizing
recycled waste Red Chinese Tractor fluid then that is another matter.

Paul, If you need the diagrams that go with the written directions just send
me your e-mail address where you can receive attachments.... (and remind me
it is for a '93 32rh band adjustment)

Not all attorneys are the Shyster Spawn of Satan, there must be a few that
feel remorse at amassing wealth at the misfortune of others.
