He did not get it fixed. He neglected to change the shaft seal, which ended up letting the transmission fluid to leak onto the clutch plate, which ruined the second clutch plate we had installed.

That car became a serious headache for us. It's since been sold to a neighbor that cares to actually take the time to fix it properly, then sell it to someone else.

Also it doesn't help that someone literally shot the car twice and destroyed a window and also cracked the windshield, but that's a separate story.

Whadafaq. I am curious about the seperate story. You can't put such a cliffhanger here!

Oof, not really a lot to say there. At least we weren't in the car when it happened. It happened at night in our apartment parking lot. My roommate was inside watching TV and I was on the balcony (2nd floor) on my phone.

We assume it was a drug deal gone bad, and one of the people hid behind my roommate's car as they shot at each other. Cops found something like 9 shell casings from a rifle and 2 or 3 casings from a pistol.

Glad nobody was hurt. Thankfully both parties have since been evicted. Might have been nice if they covered the damages to the car, but the transmission was already screwed up anyways.
