You do need a better job. And when cars like that come in, if theyre not being brought in by the Police or ICBC a few alarms should go off. You guys should be asking yourselves why are we cleaning a car with blood, skin and smashed out windows all over it and why is it not being dealt with by the RCMP or ICBC?

And on the topic of your transmission fluid Adam, you should not be paying $29 a bottle from Lordco. Take back the Pennzoil, as from what I've read most swift owners were unhappy with it. Go to Wyatt and get some good ol' GM Synchromesh. It will be perfect for you, and you'll need 2.4 litres of it from what i've read. If you are going to do it yourself, make sure you follow a good service manual and put the proper amount of fluid in.

Transmissions going kaboom seems to be a general problem around swift/sprint/metro owners. Most of them seem to cure theyre problems by going with Synchromesh. I've only had good reviews in my own vehicles. After blowing up 2 trannies in Hondas due to the wrong fluid, I learned real quick. Looks like someone before me put the wrong fluid in the Isuzu and thats why it let go too. Then you probably put in the wrong fluid, and thats why it let go for you too.
