So I driving 15 miles/hour down my subdivision and my engine start to rev up like crazy for about 5 seconds. Then everything went to normal for about 10 seconds. My check engine like came on and my car start shutting down. I turned my car off and then turned back on 10 seconds later. It smelled like something burned... My car could only go 15 miles per hour, just enough for me to go back home. I called my buddy in vegas and told him what happened. He said right away"If you got '01 or '02 Honda Civic, you just burned your transmission, buddy". I was like wtf? Everything seemed normal and I was driving on my first gear. So I did a research and thats what I found:

So, Honda knew they fuged up but they do nothing to address the problem.

I guess I need a new car now.

That sucks. In the past Honda has been very proactive on transmission issues relating to 1999-2001 Odysseys, Pilots and Accords. Providing a 7 year, 100k warranty extension on their trannies. Ask GTG, she's had first hand experience with this problem and gotten the freebie tranny.

Civics have no where even close the same failure rate as the cars that got free extensions.

Sorry to say but these days getting "goodwill" consideration from Honda is a tough go. Corporate belt tightening translates to unless you are the original owner or have serviced your car as recommended at the dealer faithfully you're likely to get no help at all.

Trannies are expensive as hell to get repaired, a tech you trust and a junkyard trannie may be you're only reasonably cheap way to get rolling again.

when the transmission goes, it's time to get a new car.

it's this attitude that keeps the used car business going.

Transmission jobs are all labor, thus the expense.

Tranny went on my car 1.5 years ago, got one for $75 off ebay, took the better part of a day to install and it's still going strong.

ARSEN, if you can find a good ole boy who likes to work on cars try that route. it's worth a shot imo

      Quite possibly the easiest money of your life can be made betting on the Panthers opponents the rest of the season

      By SOJA · Posted

      Ok so when a team has a plus sign (panthers +7.5) that means Vegas is giving you 7.5 points so  the Panthers can win or even LOSE by 7 points and you would still win your bet, when a team has a minus sign (broncos -7.5) that means you need more that amount to win the bet. The second column is the over / under for total points in the game. That's self explanatory The final column is the money line so just who you think wins the game.  Now the odds. It's oddly reported but essentially that is the odds of your bet. Lower numbers equals less return on your money. It's easiest to think of it has 100 dollars. With -110 odds that nets you essentially 90 dollars (91 to be exact) plus your original money back. So if the Broncos win by 8 and you put 100 dollars in you would net 91 dollars but have 191 in your account. For positive odds like the Panthers money line you can essentially take the first two numbers and multiply it by your betting amount.  So 100% on the Panthers money line would net you 2.8 X 100 280 dollars with the original bet back so 380 would be in your account. Obviously there with really, really low odds like -1000 you are not going to profit that much money unless you bet a HUGE chunk of money.  I'm not advising you to gamble but play around with it in the app and it will tell you how much you are going to make if you hit your bet Also if you are starting to gamble DO NOT bet large amounts. Start with like 1 and 5 dollars. Good gamblers are principled and only bet units of money. For some a unit is 1 dollar for some it's 1000 dollars. Depending on your disposable income but eventually Vegas wins and the sport is too random to bet 100% correct. Excellent gamblers have like a 60% success rate or even less.  Gambling help? Call 1-800...

      At some point we have to keep proven commodities on the roster, I’ve heard all the rational of releasing cam, trading cmc, trading burns, trading DJ Moore etc  as bad as this roster is we need retain anyone that would fetch a 2nd or 3rd in a trade, can’t trust that we can draft adequate replacements

      Fields could be interesting to bring in next off season, but there are some other interesting FA QBs as well. They may not be high profiled Qbs, but interesting enough to take a look.
