Hey,

Thanks for the assistance with the tune-ups!
About work done on the car - that's a very tragic story...

In october, I paid $3000+ to get a new transmission (WORST decision - please don't make me feel worse about it) ...

I recently had the brake pads and rotors changed/fixed/something for ~$400. Apparently I should be getting my calipers fixed too but that's another $300 and I'm really not sure if I should believe these people.

My starter went out one fine day, and had to get the car towed 40 miles and have it fixed for another $200+ (I'm sure I overpaid, but again - what did I know??). Turns out my neutral safety switch was causing some kind of short, and had to be replaced.

Also just put in a new battery for $140 (I was in an emergency).

I just want someone to help me replace the speedo and maybe help me learn how to tune up my car (for gas mileage, longetivity)...

You can email me directly and we'll work something out? Let me know what all I need to buy as well.
