My wife called me on the phone the other day crying. She took her car for an emissions inspection, and it flunked. I told her is was probably nothing, and we took her car to Meineke and dropped it off. As we were leaving Meineke, she yells back, "and tell me why my antifreeze is brown." $240 to fix the emissions problem. The brown antifreeze is caused by a cooling coil that comes from the transmission is leaking into the raditor. She needs a new radiator, hoses, and all the things that goes with correcting the transmission for an extra $2,100. Her car is a 1996 and going on 19 years old. I said, "now you can start crying." I didn't know what else to do, so we went ahead and had the emission problem fixed, and we're hoping the car will go until next spring. By then, I hope we can figure out how to get another car. I hope I wasn't stupid for putting the $240 into it for now, but I just didn't know what to do at the time.
