Well, it's probably what I think it is - hopefully

Well, my Fix Or Repair Daily is turning into a Fix Or Repair Monthly. Went out to start the Exploder to take it to get an oil change - first attempt to start didn't do anything, 2nd try got it started, but when I went to put it in Reverse, nothing happened (or moved).
Best Worst Case Scenario - it just has a transmission fluid leak and will need work. That means maybe pulling off the transmission and finding all the seals that need replaced.


Worst Worst Case Scenario - the transmission is toast - which is unlikely, since it did have some transmission fluid in it after I parked the Exploder. I didn't try driving it since I parked it on Thursday, so that's all in my favor. Unlike with the Kia when it died on my way to parking it.

It'll get picked up and hauled by the dealership and maybe I can get them to waive some amount since they should have caught this during the service for the power steering when they caught the belt tensioner.
