Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General Withdraw

I don't know how many of us have actually gone through it but dammit, I am going through Contour Withdraw. This is probably the 8th time for me dealing with this.
The first and worst time when when Sir Speedy was having the transmission rebuilt back in Oct 2002. The next few times was every time AAMCO had my car trying to fix that damn leak, and for Chevy of North Charleston to fix my door after the retired Air Force officer hit it.
Now, my car's been away from me since Thursday, and it's driving me nuts. I am supposed to get my car back today, but it's not soon enough.

I am going crazy here

Contour Withdrawal happened pretty much a few months after I got the Probe GT and steadily increased as that car began having problems. I don't hate the PGT, just like the Contour more.

Yeah I went two days without my car last week and it sucked but I got to keep about 500 miles off of it, which was good.

Well, it looks like I am going to have to deal with the withdraw for another couple of days. AAMCO told me my car would be ready late this afternoon, but yet, when I called at 4:30, lo and behold, my car was still torn apart on the floor of their shop.... "Ordering more parts" they say. So apparently the people who originally rebuilt the tranny F*cked it up ROYALLY.
He(the owner) said they would put a rush on it and try to have it back together tomorrow afternoon. So we'll see.

yeah... im going through major withdrawl..

and rush a tranny?? I dont like that idea! Thats a we bit of a vital component..

I haven't been able to drive in over a week. I've still got another week or so before I can. I hate being sick. On the bright side, there's supposed to be thunderstorms all this week and my car will sit nice n shiney in the garage for all of it.

you guys think youre going crazy??
i wont be able to drive the contour for a YEAR. yeah, a year, because im going off to college and they dont allow cars on campus first year.
good news is that i MAY get an svt after that though...

Its funny that they have the Jazz NBA team in Utah. But everyone knows they don't allow music.

I love my SVTC, but I've been going through BMW withdrawl for six years now. Hmm, the Orlando Carmax has an M5... Anyone wanna drop $50K in my Paypal account so I can buy it? Oh well, didn't think so...
