trans mount needs to be replaced, but the housing was broken where the speed sensor goes in. doesnt look related to the bad mount not to mention my car is bone stock and doesnt produce housing cracking numbers:nod:, it looks like when i had my trans rebuilt someone hit the housing with a BFH and cracked it cause you can see the hammer marks. So that was why i was having so many problems with the vss not seating correctly but anyway its fixed, and i will be doing ALL of my own work from now on. I will be replacing torque arm mount and trans mount. I also found a surprise under the car, looks like someone tried to change the fuel filter and kinked the line and just left it....always something lol. Keeps me busy and out of trouble.
