you can change your tranny fluid by yourself with a jack. or do you want to be shown up by a girl i just showed how to do it? what is wrong with your struts? a clunk? i wouldnt hold brewpubeavers review as a dont go to mastro order. i'm sure they wont hurt you.

I appreciate your concern considering the other post but invite you to give Mastro a try. If you called this past week you either spoke to me in Service department or the Pete Mastro himself and either one of us would be glad to help you out.

Yes our happy customers greatly outweight the un-happy ones. We have people come from all over Florida to have service done. One customer drives from Miami to get his major services and warrany work done with us.

I agree that the tranny fluid change is a simple job that you could do yourself. There is a DIY on WRXfanatics.com on how to do it.

you see i would do it myself but i am currently living in a deed restricted community in which they are pretty harsh on working on cars ....i cant barely take my wheels off to fully clean my rims without getting looks sucks but stuck till my house is done and i cant even sign a contract for a couple months since the lots in the phase are sold out and im having to wait for the next phase...btw my garage is full of stuff since the place im currently living in is half the size of our old place

I m not familiar with Bert Smith but i was very happy with the all the help Mastro gave me when my KAAZ aftermarket transmission gears broke and they got me set up with new RA gears.
Thanks again Kyle and everyone else involved it drives great
