Re: Audi Parts.get hosed call Shokan

[Sachelle Babbar <sbabbar@iris.nyit.edu>]

I will agree that Shokan does suck. From all the complaints to my
experience with them. I have not heard one person satisfied with them. The
biggest thing that I hear about them from a bunch o' different people is
that they buy drivetrain parts and they always turn out to be shot. This
is after Shokan says (I've heard this, too in my hunting for a used
tranny) that everything is tested, put on a running car, and guaranteed.
First, I get a price on a tranny that's ~$250 higher than the locals, on
top of that, it might be shot anyway, on top of that, more labor.
