  • Uh... help? (transmission)

    So I'm on the throttle, shift it into second and bam, HUGE jolt followed by several lesser jolts. I wonder WTF just happened so I pull off the road to check under the hood. Hmm, that's wierd, the engine cover is almost completely off... I can't see anything else wrong, so I snap it back into place and drive home. The whole way some thing feels REALLY wrong with the car, like the engine is bouncing around or something. I'm convinced the motor mount has been ripped apart the way this thing is moving around. So I take a look when I get home (and the trusty Maglite).

    That's odd....




    Then, the "that's odd" becomes "Holy shit"...

          I'm scared to even drive it to the dealership. Although I'm pretty sure the damage has already been done...

                Why drive it when you have roadside assist? Get it towed in on GM's dime.

                      That's the way to go. The CV boot on the differential blew. It's not worth the risk to drive, because you will break down.
