[QUOTE="Chris M 2, post: 743496, member: 66045"] Took in my Trac to [b]Miami Valley Transmission[/b] (Dayton, OH) today. You know how it is at these places--you're pretty much at their mercy unless you have Super Ninja repair skills and all the sweet hookups (like Todd Z and others on here) :P Thank God, all it needed was a service and EPC adjustment. I just got the call from the owner, and he says it's driving fine now. Total cost, $18.99. Said the valvebody gasket looked fine, and saw no other problems. Most important, he was courteous and actually listened to what I had to say, including what I thought might be wrong. Another place I called (won't name them) basically blew off what I had to say and led me to believe it would probably need a re-build (before they even saw the thing!). I'll be keeping my eye on the situation and hoping I won't ever have to go back. But thankfully I have an honest place to go if things ever change. if you're looking for an honest shop in or near Dayton, I recommend Miami Valley Transmission. Ya'll be cool, Chris M. p.s. -- Will update in a new message after driving it over the weekend... [/QUOTE]
