20/01/09 01:16 AM20/01/09 01:16 AM #1 well the inevitable happened yesterday! my auto shat itself after over 1yr of frequent WOT lol I knew it was coming but its just weird the way it went! firstly after a little cruise on friday night I pulled up at sandown car park and noticed a scraping clunking noise from the ass end thought maybe my handbrake was getting stuck so got it home and parked it in the driveway. Next morning I hear mum trying to reverse my car out of the driveway and it didnt wana go back all I could hear was reverse stalling up lol so I managed to get it out of the driveway and parked it in the street decided I wouldnt drive it and just get it towed to my mechanic on monday. So yesterday morning I had it towed to my mechanic, after a while he calls me up to tell me my brake shoe is stuffed....10mins later he calls back to say its my spider gear that's stuffed that's why I couldnt reverse....then 10mins after that he calls to tell me he was driving the car out of the work shop and lost all forward gears! So now ive got a stuffed spider gear and a stuffed auto! not very happy but ahh well it was gona happen sooner or later just a pain in the ass that it had to happen now, Edited 20/01/09 01:18 AM20/01/09 01:18 AM by XRDOSE
