First off, your car is a lemon, since the first occurance occurred within 18k. Second, even if its NOT a lemon, your 100k warranty covers the drivetrain at the very least...which includes your engine and transmission (among lots of other things non-electrical). Third, since this IS warranty work, if they decide to 'tear down' your engine for an inspection, thats part of the warranty work. They can't charge you $1,000+ for something that Toyota covers. Thats like buying an oil change, but having to provide the filter, oil and hydraulic lift yourself.
Your dealership(s) are just being lazy as ****.

How much am I still spending. lmao. Six grand is going to PTuning. lol, Motor, mount, radiator, fans, gauges, and all that stuff probably about 7 or 8 grand. Trans was like 5 or 6 all done with LSD and all. Not worth it at all. But screw it. It'll be fun.
