Oh Costas, one more thing. I just reviewed this entire thread and want to encourage you to have the right (passenger) side differential mount examined very carefully. You provided a good photograph of what does appear to be a tear in the rubber boot. If that is an old tear, it's possible that the liquid leaked out so long ago that the evidence isn't there anymore. This is particularly possible since the car is new to you. One failed mount will allow additional stress on the remaining good mount, which may help explain why the left one failed. While the shop is replacing the one on the left, they may as well do the one on the right if necessary.
Aright I really appreciate the heads up on that. I'll definatly ask them about it to see if they can replace both mounts since what you're saying makes perfect sense. As for having an S2000 specialist, I didn't ask, but by seeing how things work around there, i'm pretty certain they didn't have one.

[QUOTE=Costas,Aug 10 2004, 02:41 PM] Well, I with the guy in charge of things there, so we would get the right treatment and get it done for FREE unlike these people, who still wanted to charge me to fix it.
