Über855R Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 some of you may remember a couple of months ago when I blew my transmission. Since then it was sent to Level 10 for a full stage 3 rebuild. Now it is back in and my car is almost road worthy again. In the interest of sharing my experiences I figured I would show you guys how bad my transmission really was when it came out. Hold on its not pretty.If you can believe it the car still drove under its own power after that happened all the way home. Okay so home was .5 miles and it left a trail of transmission fluid all the way back but it did still go into gear, unbelievable considering the damage.

WhiteT5 Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 Holy dookey. When mine went, all of the cracked off bits and pieces of gears stayed inside the casing. Were you driving hard when it broke or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Über855R Posted August 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 Wow, what mileage did your transmission go?it was about 130,000 milesHoly dookey. When mine went, all of the cracked off bits and pieces of gears stayed inside the casing. Were you driving hard when it broke or what?I wasn't driving hard when it happened. I was right down the street from my house in a residential area doing about 20 mph. Clunk bang and a dragging noise all the way home. Nothing was dragging but there was a bit of damage. I think it happened some time before and I hit a bump and it finally broke everything loose, no way after all my hard driving that a speed bump did all of that damage.

drPheta Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 So what's the new one look like? How the hell did you send THAT one to level10 and get a working one back? Or did they just exchange one with Volvo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
