| I was driving my 2002 toyota celica and i went to shift into third gear and missed and went into first gear and the car engine blew up. i thought this was odd because their was no saftey lock preventing me to go into first gear i simply just put it right in and my car engine blew right up. i need help because i have payment on a brand new car with 3500 miles on it and it is sitting in the shop and toyota is refusing to even touch it. | |||

| My car was making a noise. i took it to several mechanics and was told it was something with the transmission. i have a standard manual transmission and my car had 65,000 miles on it when the noise began. the last mechanic i took it to said that this problem should not be happening with a standard transmission at the mileage it's at. i opened a case with toyota and was told that i had to have it looked at by toyota mechanics. they opened up the transmission and told me that the bearings inside had gone bad. the work is going to cost at least $1,000. *jb | |||
