    I just called to have that and a walnut blasting on my mother-in-law Clubman. They said 500 plus tax for the blasting but would have to look up the transmission service. What did they charge you?

    Thanks. If it wasn't a pain I would do it myself.

    Out of curiosity if the transmissions are the same why is there such a disparity in price ??

    Driving back and forth in your driveway during the wintertime doesn't count, Dave!

    Snow what is that? I would have to drive 2 or 3 hours to get in snow in the winter time. Besides my car hasn't been in the rain before.

    Thank you! Funny thing is that now with Pro exhaust, CAI, NM PM, I don't think on these Mountain Rds I would want the car any faster. With NM wheel control arms and the big pair I feel as the suspension and handling are already not up to part with the power. On tracks should be a different ball game.

    Stay well, Ara

    I am glad it didn't total your R58! Black is hard color to match, that must be a good shop you took it to. Pictures?

    It's really nice when problems are easily corrected.
