I dropped my car off mastro subaru yesterday to check on my transmission. They called me and asked me to authorize 6 hours of labor (which is $592) to pull apart the the transmission. They Guy on the phone told me that 99.9 % of the claims are denied due to the driver error. So here I am now asking for advice. I narrowed down my choices.

1) Call SOA and take the claim to a higher level
2) Take it to a performance shop to get it fixed (If you know any good ones please let me know, I was thinking CFT motorsports in Orlando)
3) Take a risk and authorize 6 hours of labor and wait for the answer.

Any ideas? I know I didn't abuse my car at all.

thanks
