Hi `Keane,
Are you happy with the work they did ? Was you Buick clean when you picked it up ? How long does it take the computer to learn ? (I don't know how that works ?)...Does the computer monitor your driving style & adapts to it ?

What is your warranty on the transmission ? Their work ?
Did you enjoy your drive home ?

Wish you many safe & trouble-free miles >EnJoy<

Everything seems fine, car could use a wash. Computer needs some in town driving to learn how the new transmission shifts, 50 miles or so. Warranty is 12 month, 15k miles.

Hi `Keane & thanks for your reply. I hope you don't have to use the warranty. I just read the below on computers & auto transmissions. It explained a lot to me.
Automatic Transmissions A Short Course on How They Work ...

Good Luck

The company i went with, Triple Edge Performance is the go to place for our transmissions. They have an excellent reputation and i nearly never hear of someone not being satisfied with a build from them. I also had new plugs and wires put in the car so i should be good to go for a while.

Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone!
I have 5 glorious days off work. Thanks in part to being suspended. I've been bad. But it gives me much needed time to get to a million things that need to be done.

Hi `Keane, I've learned it pays to go to the best to get quality work, instead of trying to save $'s elsewhere & costing you much more in the long run. Taking care of 3 cars has to be expensive, but you seems to enjoy all of them. Wish you many happy miles in all 3

Hi `Tommy, your sons are happy to have a father that gets involved in their life. They will grow as fast as the grass with sunshine, water and love. *Hope you are feeling all better.

Hello Mod/Admin `Taz, & Happy Cinco de Mayo to you. Lou,
what could you have done to get suspended. Did you become a BeachBum. Did you chase half naked ladies around the Casino again >.

I hope you don't have to spend all your time off working around your home, but can take some time to relax and enjoy `life. (or play on the MCF)...Thanks for your honesty...It takes a good man to admit he was wrong. I would have been suspended many times if I was caught (LOL)...I play a lot of games @ work. Wish you a good time `off >EnJoy<
