Well they found the problem. The problem is that my cars not one of these:



Yup I got a rental corrolla. Unfortunately that means my suspension isn't going in tomorrow and will have to wait until I come back from Poland in about 2 weeks
Said the drive shaft - tranny joint seal was leakin. Luckily I talked to the guy responsible for the work on my car and it seemed like he knew what he was doing. Heres what it looks like now. Said its gonna stay on the jack all night (I had to ride the special jack cuz my cars too low for the other normal people jacks )



Kinda pist off cuz it shoulda been looked at right away, but they don't have the part in stock anyway. Oh well, what are you gonna do right. Atleast they're covering it under warranty.

ohh so they did look at it.. then forget what i said earlier :D maybe they just had to get approval first.. good it's working out well.

but the driveshaft/seal? so what? the other dealer didn't install it correctly damaging it when they reinstalled it?

^^ well it's a good thing you're getting it fixed!
sorry you'll be gone for 2 weeks but it should be fixed now.
Maybe you have found a new dealer to go to??
have to see the quality of the work when they're done
