Hi,

My odyssey is painful:
I left my car for center bearing replacement (with BMW bearing); the repair=
 shop insisted to rebuild the transmission first("200k km is the limit for =
those trannys"); I asked only for center bearing replacement:
after 5 days in the shop the damaged the old bearing - yoke seized, now wit=
h the new bearing vibrations make the car
undrivable- the shaft is bent.
There are no usable shafts in our area -Calgary,

Does anybody know about a usable driveshaft(no need of bearing), just a yok=
e might be useful.
Also any transmission in a good shape or rebuilt?

(As you might suspect I love that car quite a bit, and put new 4 tires a mo=
nth ago end a large front -end job)

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
