IS My auto tranny finally giving up the ghost?



Though it sucks, it IS pretty definitive, so at least Rodolfo can get in
with life. Sometimes knowing what to do next is half the battle, sounds

fight, and have faith, the MD cardholders will get you up and running.
Won't you guys? Good luck and wishing you no snags, 'k?
