ok so I bought my car and on the drive home we discovered that it was smoking badly and pouring out oil... So blah blah blah we get it fixed and now two months later its doing it again? is it worth fixing... it cost like a zillion dollars and I dont got crazy money like that... what should I do? [:@]

 

Have you talked to the person/place you bought it from about the first time it happened?

 

Yeah I bought it on autotrader and that day I called the guy and he said it wasnt his problem anymore it was mine because the car was mine now. So for us not to bother him and we went to the place that it said on his business card and they said that he was no longer allowed there... So we paid to get it fixed on our own.

 

What did you have fixed last time?

 

new transmission... [:'(]

 

Well I guess go back to the place you had it fixed the first time to see what they think of what happened. They are not going to admit any fault of course, but it might help. Are you manual or automatic?

 

its both automatic and manual... but I only know how to drive automatic

 

I assume you mean its tiptronic?

 

Lesson number 1; Before you buy a used car, have it checked by a qualified mechanic.

Where is the smoke coming from? I am unclear how a transmission repair would fix exhaust smoke.

 

The mechanic who installed the tranny may warente his work. Cant hurt to ask.
