...I usually research any old posts first before I ask...well you're Highly wrong, it leave my oil pan...yes, I looked at the cap today......wow, you're a high definition of a donkey's synonym...ASS......and for the record I didn't freakin change the oil...some other guy did at his house....he's the tard that doesn't know where the motor and tranny is......get it straight......
but its your car dude? shouldnt you know what work is being done to it, even if it is something as minor as an oil change? something so small turned into a huge problem. I think your as much to blame as the guy who put the wrong oil in..

How do you expect this to get covered under warranty? It was clearly your fault and not a mechanical failure. Awesome if it does, but I don't see it happening honestly.

...yea, I trusted the guy...his big talk sounded ok to me...I've never said I don't take the blame, I was the stupid one to let a guy that "knows" what he's doing put tranny oil instead of motor oil...and the funny thing is that a guy from Mastro...I believe it was Will...I had a conversation with him on the phone and I mentioned him about doing an oil change and if mixing oils (uncle scottys) is recomendable...and I've clearly said 75w90ns a couple of times...he said that 75w90 will do just as fine too......even though I didnt mean it was a tranny oil change......

just about every service manager and worker at mastro frequents this site bro... i wouldnt take it to mastro.

and i'd change the oil back to factory recommended.

i know it seems like everyone is ganging up on you and everything but we all just hate to see a subie owner in your position. in the future man, PLEASE PM me with ANY questions or post up before you do something... oil change, tranny flush, etc. i dont care if your boost fluid is low bro just gimme a shout!

Because almost everyone that works at Mastro frequents this forum.

Even if they didn't,i doubt you'd get it covered under warranty.

that's gear oil, NOT engine oil

regardless take this as a lesson learned in more than one way. Know that the people you are listening to for info, know what they are talking about...that and 75w-90 is gear oil.
