If it wasn't a bad transmission, why replace it at all? This whole thing is crazy.

Best of luck resolving all this. Your car is beautiful.
I know it's a lot to read, but the entire story is in the threads. They said it was the RMS when it never was the MAIN leak, if it was even leaking at all. The main leak was tranny fluid, which they "ignored". I picked up the vehicle, drove it a few miles, pulled it over to check for a leak (wasn't leaking and I thought it was fixed) then I drove it an hour back home. Well, I get home and it's leaked out nearly all of its tranny fluid because it doesn't leak until it warms up. Transmission was ruined and they replaced at their cost because of their negligence in repair and allowing me to drive it home. This is everything in a nutshell but there are plenty more details.

It's been a nightmare to say the least.
