My reverse/1st gear works again!

Man oh man, I'm so happy.
About a week ago I posted how my car lost its reverse and 1st gear. I took it to some mechanics and they all told me that I had to rebuild my tranny (automatic). I even asked them to see if I could do the swap, and of course they told me it was impossible :P , lol. Anyways, the most expensive one was charging me $1500 and the cheapest for $750. After this experience I can say that I hate mechanics... bunch of hustlers.

Saturday night I threw a party in my house. That same day I found some LUCAS TRANSMISSION FIX that my friend gave me. I decided to give it a try, and just add a little bit my tranmission fluid. I didn't turn on the car until night time, and what do you know? I start reving the car showing how weird the problem was to my friends, and voila! reverse kicks all of the sudden. LOL.

Have to give mad props to that little bottle of Lucas (this sounds like a commercial, but hey, it saved $1000). I finally found the code that the computer is giving me which 1107 (Torque Converter Clutch), I have to get that checked out and take it to some other mechanics.

Now I can go to the Miami meetings
