with my car. We finally took it in and got the transmission fixed. Dan took it in on Saturday for a estimate and dropped it off Monday for the work. Turns out once they opened her up they found some other fun problems that needed fixing as well. In addition to a transmission rebuild, 4
th gear was completely gone, she needed a new torque
converter (not sure what that is but OK) and a new drive chain. So they fixed her all up and Dan went and picked her up yesterday morning. It was love as soon as I put her in reverse. She used to go clunk when I would put her in reverse and this time nothing. I was so happy I giggled :) Then I started to drive her and she just glides down the road like she's supposed to. I am one happy lady these days. Looks like we will get many more years from our trusted friend "the black car" as the kids call her. She has taken us on
many adventures and I am excited for the next few adventures with her.

Glad you got the car fixed she should give you many more years. It is almost like getting a new car lol. We finally figured out what has been causing the rattle noise on the van. It has to do with the breaks (there is a rattle clip (there is a more technical name for it I just can't remember it) basically the next time we replace the breaks the clip will come with them so we now just wait. I do however know now to get rid of the noise I just have to apply pressure to the breaks gently! lol. I hope you continue to enjoy your time in Arizona! Hopefully we can see you again soon but you are better off staying where you are good and happy! Hopefully Dan gets his job in March!!
