Never trust Aamco! I had a friend with a 4 spd Mercedes that took his car into Aamco because it was stuck in reverse. They diagnosed it as an "internal transmission problem," and offered to fix it with a used tranny for $700. I convinced him to have the car taken to the "expensive" Mercedes mechanic in town. The Mercedes tech spotted the problem right away and fixed it: bad shift bushings bushings, parts $3.60, labor $40. My own car was previously diagnosed with the same expensive malady, it needed a clutch cable adjustment, and a small shifter adjustment. These are just two of many stories from Aamco that I know of.
