All right, GreyGhost. Yeah, I'm new to this forum and yeah I posted a problem only to see if any other HHR lover had trany issues. I'm not one of those wanna bees. I thought since you guys site on this site that there was some real knowledge to be found by submitting a problem and getting a bonified helpful response. I guess you really don't have anything better to do than sit around and b*%** about other people and their really issues.
True problem exists. Nothing I did or the way I drive my car. Just a bad trany. New one being installed tomorrow. No thanks for your help. Skeptic!!!

We say what we think on here and its not always gonna be what you want to hear. I hope you car is back to you quickly. How long did they say it would take? What dealer are you using as well. We all like to see how others are being treated by dealers. There have been a lot of horror stories as well as success from service issues. SOOOOO...let us know what dealer has you HHR!! Thanks.

GreyGhost,
I appreciate your reply but I think you should lighten up on new people joining the forum. These types of comments can really turn people off to the site. No offense taken. Thanks for welcoming me into the forum in the most unusual way.
Dealer is Folsom Cheverolet in Folsom, CA. So far they have been very accomodating. Gave me a rental car with no hassle. Car should be ready today with new trany installed. Will provide more detail has to the mishap of the trany after I pick up my baby.

Yeah, I agree with greyghost.
What did you hit? The big question is why is the trans. fluid leaking from the bottom of the car. 90% of the time when you "blow" a trans. the "bands" or "clutches" go and you get severe slippage or just revving with no engagement. Hardly ever with fluid leaking "all over" unless a seal went bad.
Also I believe, there is a TSB about trans fluid leakage.
Did to check the trans fluid for a "burned" condition?
What are your other symptoms at 75 miles short of warranty expiration?

That was really quick. Seems they may have had a transmission in the parts bin ready and waiting. Do keep us informed on what happened to your old trans and if they are extending the warranty on the new trans.

I'm also curious to know what kind of warranty they will offer me.
