And that's the reason why we don't like "Glorified Honda's". ;)
Seriously though, a neutral drop like that was just asking for it. Hope he
isn't in too much trouble. :(

So, the light turns green, and uh oh. he's still in neutral. REV!!
nothing.
REVs it up to 4k RPMS and just slams it into drive. CLUNK!!!!!! car now
won't move..
okay. here's the thing. when we got out. even in gears OR park, the car
could be moved. (no parking paw, nothing) but. when you put it into
reverse,
you can hear clicking, and when you give it gas. the RPMs will rise and the
Speedo will rise also. Then. when you put it back into PARK, you can hear a
grind for about 1 second, but you can still push the car. Now. I'm
thinking
CV joint? Isn't the tranny putting power to the wheels? but something
along
that line is broken? I tried to isolate the clicking, but the darn car is
low and i didn't really want to get dirty. What do you think it is?
