Most of us are in North County.  Where are you?  What kind of car?  We can help you out just give us the info.

Feel free to give me a ring and I will see if we can help.  Andy 619-985-8109 cell, 760-728-9841 home   

I'm in the San Diego area between the 5 and 805 here in Clairemont. I have an empty garage right now and can call a few of the boys If we need to drop and place. All my cell phones are dead right now...I'm not trying to pay a 700.00 bill right now but you can send me a PM If you think it's an option.

Also I don't have much in the way of tools but I gots friends ;)

its a 2000 golf with an auto tranny. the tranny won't shift when its hot. i got stranded near barstow. it wouldn't shift at all. i got a tow to a budget and rented a truck to tow it to san diego. i was able to get it on and off the trailer, but i haven't tried driving any farther. i'm pretty sure that it will need a rebuild or replacement.

Glad you got it home....And I always hated my 2000 GLX tranny. I had it replaced 3 times and when I finally turned in that POS it only had 80K on it...

It looked good though 

that sucks thad sorry im of no help, if u like i can send u some dynomite!

2000 Golf auto tranny huh. hmmm...  I doubt anyone has one of those lying around.  hahaha. 

I am going to call James to see if he can get in touch with you to see if maybe he has some I deas about what it may be.

Thad, you may be in a tight spot.  I know for a fact none of us have a mkiv auto tranny lying around let alone none of us are really familiar with the swap aside from James.  And from what he said it is not the driveway job.  He said feel free to call him at 760-703-1916 if you need any more info.

Just as I figured he would James says the auto trannys are pretty much bombs.  If it was slipping than it is probably dead.  He says that at work if they aren't shifting or slipping then they just usually put a new tranny in as it isn't worth re-building.

The worse part is that a new tranny is an arm and a leg.  James and I both have no real ideas of where you could get a reliable used tranny.

Tapatillo was a good junk yard in SD years ago.  They used to be real good but neither myself or James has been there for a long time.  They may have a tranny for you but since it's an auto who knows if it will work or how long it will last.

How long are you in town?  Since everything is already closed tonight and Friday is a holiday you've only got two days (weds & thurs) to lock something down before the 3 day weekend.  

Sorry for the shitty news.  I wish I was able to say we could have you up and running by Friday but I don't think that is possible.

If you can figure a way to do it, you may be better off towing it back to CO and seeing if Joel can hook up a tranny.

At this point I am still down to help, but I don't know what else to do.
