I just guess I really need to vent on this one but all I have heard is good stuff about PA but I have had the worst luck with them. I just got my transmission back from them for the third time after it did not shift right from 2nd to 3rd. After four weeks without my daily driver I finally get it back and it still has the same problem. I also left a note in there that there was a weird noise by the shift linkage when the trans is rocked, a leak out of the tailshaft and if they could try to raise the shift point from 2nd to 3rd becuse of my new converter. The noise is still there, there is a puddle under the tailshaft and it shifts at the same RPM. They fixed nothing and it is worse now because the new servo that they put in is now leaking and it is also leaking around where the shifter linkage goes into the trans. Three different faucets on this trans now. Has anyone else had bad luck from PA?

Figures that I always finish working on my car at exactly 5:10 on a Friday when they close at 5

that sucks man, I bought a few PA parts but had my cousins trans shop button it up. And your post is why i've yet to buy anything already assembled.

good luck with your problem, maybe PA will just give you another trans this time[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img]

Unfortunately, I've had nothing but GREAT stuff to say about PA. (hell, my car's on display on their website). [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

I've never had anything bad happen/come/arrive/work bad utilizing their stuff.
Granted, I just use all their internal stuff, and assemble it all at home, by my lonesome, but still, great service, great tech help, (when necessary), and just great all around working with them, whatever I need.

Sorry to hear about your woes.

Maybe they'll exchange it. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_spin.gif[/img]
