Ouch!

So how much $ for replacement engine, or is it covered?

Must you provide engine core to purchase the engine?

Down here in Mexico a cool 20 grand out the door for a new engine... core should be provided... cause erroneous downshift from 5th to 2nd and probably aftermarket flash

This might be a dumb question, but are downshifts ok if you land in the black...so in other words im in 5th gear going 65-70mph around 2.5krpm, and i decide to go to 2nd and my rpms hit 5.5-6k since im still in the black is this ok. I guess im under the impression only the RED is bad.???
