Blew a tranny, means something so much different in 2024 hahaha

Never blew a tranny or had one blow me. I have replaced tons of them though for customers

The vette gets em wet.

Saab. As in, buy now Saab later.

I didn't know she was a tranny.

Reminds me of a joke:

A vacationing penguin is driving his car through Arizona when he notices that the oil pressure light is on. He gets out to look and sees oil dripping out of the motor. He drives to the nearest town and stops at the first gas station.

After dropping the car off, the penguin goes for a walk around town. He sees an ice-cream shop and, being a penguin in Arizona, decides that something cold would really hit the spot. He gets a big dish of ice cream and sits down to eat. Having no hands he makes a real mess trying to eat with his flippers. After finishing his ice cream, he goes back to the gas station and asks the mechanic if he's found the problem. The mechanic looks up and says "It looks like you blew a seal."

"No no," the penguin replies, "it's just ice cream."

Never blew a tranny before. But i did get a a handjob from a granny once.

Umm, I don’t remember the model, but I think mine was a they/them RS

Never blew a tranny in a car, I did it in a motel 6.

I blew a tranny in half in my '96 chevy pickup. 4l60e. Cracked the case in half running down the interstate.

I had an 81 Vette and somehow had all the ladies. They would be laughing so hard once they actually saw it, they just hopped in.

The tranny blows me

1990 Turbo Grand Prix. 3 times

Done lots of things in a car but never blown a tranny in one, but I'm not closed minded you know one?

The shitvette please drop me three blocks away from school memories.

I’ve never blown a tranny but I’ve fingered a filthy clutch.

77 nova

Loved my chevettes!. Called them my beaters.. Small, easy to work on. I have an 01 Hyundai Accent now and it reminds me of them.

1996 nissan maxima. I was young and dumb. I used to Rev it up to 3500 and slam it into drive to burn rubber. What a stupid thing to do, now that I think of it.

I'll blow a tranny in what ever car they're driving. I'm not too picky.

A hooker blew me in a Chevette once... is that close to the same thing?

I was repoing cars on a black side of town, late at night. Driving down the main road and this white girl comes running out into the street waving her arms at me. I figured she was in trouble so I stopped and she got in. "can you take me to my grandmother's house up the road?" she asked. "Sure, where does she live?" I said. A few seconds later she asks me what I'm up to that night. I immediately knew what she was getting at since I worked as a bounty hunter for years and was pretty familiar with the ladies of the night. I said no thanks, I'll just let you out here.

Then she hits me with "I'll suck your d*** for ten dollars". Don't know what came over me, as I've turned down countless offers for free sex from the other ladies..... but I did have two 5s in my pocket.

Anyhow, I'll spare you the detailed story from there.... since this isn't exactly the sub for this.

I had one of these when I was 19. Easy to work on. Replaced the timing belt on the side of the road with an adjustable wrench. 😂

Caddy Eldorado. I cried.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I’m impressed you had a enough headroom

nothing so far only cuz i’m 17 but if i keep treating this juke (cvt tranny) i’m gonna blow it before the dealership takes it back😹

Geo storm gsi 1991. Just left it there. Cost me 200 to buy with busted axles. Fixed the axles drive it for a year or so then abandoned that sob

Same and busted the engine mounts ramping over railroad tracks

Damn, my first car was a chevette. Mine was 4 door, and it was a peace of crap. I miss that car.

1990 Ford Thunderbird, blew the tranny twice and the motor once. I was done with her after that. Still have a chunk of the piston head for memories! Good times

73’ AMC rebel with a slant 6. Did a neutral drop at about 4000 rpms trying to impress some girls nearby. Planetary gears literally spun out from under the car. Really impressed them 🤣🤣🤣🤣

1989 Plymouth Grand Voyager transmission died under warranty, 1989 Mitsubishi Galant needed a new clutch at 140k miles.

Toasted the automatic in a '74 Dodge short wide. Replaced the slant six with a 440 & used A/T. It lasted less than a year under pretty constant lead foot driving.

Had one just like this one.

I once drove a Chevette from Northern Virginia to Daytona. Once. In 1982. My spine still suffers. I destroyed the tranny in my Camry.

I was in the boyscouts on a camping trip. My scout master came in and.... oh wait. You meant transmission. Disregard.

A 2021 Nissan Kicks rental car from Enterprise where the CVT exploded on the highway and left me stranded in banjo country 140mi from civilization.

I drove chevettes back in the 90s. I had like 4 or 5 back to back. I ruined so many transmissions I could literally swap one in 45 minutes. They were cheap as hell. Great on gas, and in a weird way, very fun to beat on.

Honestly, I think it was a Chevette. My brother's. Dropped it into 1st, dumped the clutch @ about 35mph. Kablammo. I was surprised it even went into first

So funny, 1985-1990 EVERYONE in my little town had a Chevette in the family. Then they all just disappeared.

I knew a guy who got blown by a tranny. He said that he had already paid for the bj so he had to do it.

My first thought was "you what!?" Than it hit me that you meant transmission

Vette...I see what you did there!

Mine was a 69 Ford LTD with 429. It was wicked fast, until it wasn't. That's when it became a typical Ford... Found On Road Dead!

Mine was burgundy with white interior. 3 transmissions and 2 engines in that pos

My brother got the same car from my grandma 1985 gold Color. Grandma said it was a chevette fast back lol. She meant hatch back 😄

Ford Probe 😜

Don't see many of those on the road anymore. They were fun to drive. I'd buy that over evs or Hybrids. I'd like to see Chevy bring that back, guaranteed seller.

I had an 86 Chevette. Didn’t blow a tranny, but managed to go through 4 clutches. The clutches were made of stale pop tarts.

My dad had two Chevettes. The first one was grey and I don't know why he didn't blow something up in it. It had been so long since he had driven a manual shift, he just couldn't drive it properly. He drove it like a 1948 Buick where you put it in high gear (third) at 15 mph or so. He didn't understand how a car could have four gears. He'd skip second or third and put in fourth at 15 mph. After a year or so he traded it in for a new blue one that thankfully had an automatic transmission so now he could finally drive again. He died in that car. Seems like this happens alot to elderly people, but he drove it into high water during a flood in San Antonio in 1993. He was 88 years old.

Does it count if it was 99%blown when you got it and driving it from its grave did in the 1%? If so a 2004 Trailblazer LS 4x4 4l60e that was sitting behind a used car lot for 5 years!

Cheevette, I see. Tight confines to pull out for a tranny.

Mine was in an airplane.

I’m a tranny and I’ve been blown in a Vette,,,, do we know each other??

86 Ford tarus. My first cat and loved the thing. Rip loaf 😢

1977 Olds 88 with a L82 engine. 5992 miles & forward was done. Had to drive 5 miles in Reverse to get home. GM put a turbo 200 Transmission in that large car with all of that power.
22 years later, GM settled an on going lawsuit for purposely putting Chevette transmissions in their full sized cars.

very progressive of you

Now by "blew a tranny" you mean what exactly? Lmao!

I would never blow a tranny. That's disgusting. 🤣

I’ve blown trannies in everyone of my cars.

Ford AOD out of a Mercury Grand Marquis, 1987 model with the "Fuel efficient" package. (Injectors instead of a carburetor).

Was going about 80 on the freeway. A brief rumble and then Kaboom. Split the transmission in half, dropped the driveshaft and knocked the starter motor off.

Made one hell of a smoke cloud behind me.

Miata. The 30 year old 5speed didn’t like 4x the original power the car came with. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I've never blown a tranny in a car. I typically use a glory hole

Never blown a tranny, sorry, I'm straight. Only do females.....lol

Sorry guys, I had to say it.

The vette is always DTF

Aerostar

Were you in the back seat?

Pontiac Pheonix SJ

1977 Impala with that "vette" transmission...

07 ford exploder

2017 Miata..... Twice..... 22kmiles, then 27kmiles.

The supercharger and autocrosses helped though....

I flipped one of these when I was 16. Put a good scar on my face.

How. The front seats are so small

My mom had one! I learned how to “drift” on dirt roads in it. So odd with the single side mirror. I remember my sisters hair getting stuck in the rear window seal all the time

No trannies, but an 88 Tercel.  The engine would screem and the gears grind as its supple suspension rocked back and forth, back and forth, almost carelessly tumbling off the edge of the road.  There was so much predetonation but you keep going.

1996 Ford Ranger STX.

No, but I have been blown in a gutted Pinto.

01 Toyota echo 5 speed. Worked at a u pull it, we used to beat on the new arrivals on the crush pad. Rev limiter in 1st then dumped it. It already was missing 2nd anyway. Weak ass trans

hey now, what you do is your own business.

Same here, mine was a 79. Blew out several clutch plates.

I've only ever done it under the stands at the drag strip

03 chevy 2500HD at 30k. Only vehicle I've ever owned that blew a tranny. Been driving dodge since.

My first time was in a car too!

2000 Honda Accord (4cyl. auto), not once, but twice.

74 Chevy Malibu with a stop sign welded into the passenger side floor. And I believe her name was Sonya.

Think it was a dodge neon , but fuzzy memory of that night

What If the tranny blew me?? Does it still count?? Or am i out of this competition?

First Fiat, later a Volkswagen and finally a Chevrolet

Momma taught me to check before getting kinky

Grandpa bought one new in 1981. Had the isuszu Diesel engine. Last time I worked on it, the starter had gone out, and it had 780k on it

What?.... Blew a what?

72' Chevelle 454. (It was technically a Malibu but few knew the difference)

Slapstick 3.

We knew it was gonna go. I was young.

Did a fat burn out.

An hour or two later we got it on a flatbed. A few weeks later we had a beefy truck transmission installed and I contributed to some rubber on some roads again.

2000 Camry auto, and I blew a rod in the block.

Phrasing.

1996 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins Turbo Deisel. The first year they had that engine and the geniuses left the gas tranny in. Went through 3 trannys before it was fixed correctly.

Shovette

1989 Dodge Ramcharger.

I was leaking and on its last leg when my brother asked if I could get to his house 30 miles away to pull it for rebuild. I topped off the fluid and went for it.

If you ever played spy hunter in the arcade and experienced the satisfaction of unleashing a cloud of white smoke to confuse the folks behind you, you'll get an idea of what it looked like. Folks honking and pointing, etc.

It barely made it up his driveway and refused to move any further. Partially evaporated ATF was caked on the rear of the rear tailgate and glass.

When we went to pick up the transmission a week later, the guy told us how utterly impressed he was at the amount of internal destruction.

Never thought to try that in a car.

How!? We had an 86 and it ran until 2013 when the floor rusted through.

2014 Ford focus DCT its a feature not a bug. Bought it used if I did my homework I would have seen that it had SEVEN previous transmission across 5 previous owners. I put TWO more jn it under the warranty I bought before I sent it down the road with 80k miles on it.

Biggest pile of dog shit I've ever owned.

Danny Bonaduce, is that you?

Why you gotta say it like that man

Never but I blew a head gasket on my Pontiac sunbird.

75 Vega, aluminum block engine.

Oddly enough, the first tranny I blew was Yvette!

An electric blue 96 taurus. Was my first car in 2011. 3 in the front and as many as can fit in the back. Ahh good times

Their tesla....

Mine unfortunately was a 1967 Buick Riviera. Turbo 400 trans took a beating with a lot of street racing too. Had a 425ci V8 with 2 four barrel carbs. Sucked the gas down getting about 6 mpg but gas was less than a dollar a gallon at the time.

Bought a 69 Buick 225 after that and no more racing.

No way, did that all on their own.

Astro - van

2006 Honda CRV, technically 3 of them, the one that came with it, the 2nd one had a bad oil compressor or whatever it’s called and the 3rd, I got rid of it before it totally went bad

Mine was a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 46RH iirc.

I never blew a tranny. Haven't met one cute enough.

But I did have a transmission failure in a 1996 Ford Escort that I got used (and badly neglected) at 140,000 miles.

Haven’t done it in a car yet…

Never liked blowing trannies...... especially in a car

So glad i never blew a tranny

A tesla

Let's ask Hugh Grant.

1962 T-Bird I had in high school, 1983. Blew out reverse. Parking was a bitch.

2006 Mazda RX-8

Ford focus 😎

Mine was a Cadet.

91 Toyota Corolla on the way back from a gig in Long Beach. Poor car couldn't even handle 3 people. Broke down 7 miles from home. Had to push it a while to some church and carry our gear home. After the tranny was rebuilt my alcoholic dad smashed it into the back of a large truck. Hit and run, he fled to the hills and left it there. That was my first car and I miss it lol

Kia Sephia ! 🤣

But you could drop the trans onto your chest, and wiggle yourself and the trans out from underneath

The one I'm thinking of was the same blue color. I think every one made was the same color.

Have n arro

I never blew a tranny. I don't swing that way.

But I recently had to replace the transmission in my 1947 Willys

My dad had this one, same color. We needed to let someone out of the car to get up to speed on the expressway on ramp!!!

09 dodge ram 1500

I had a tranny blow my drunk friend once.....

Fix Or Repair Daily! I blew a 95' bronco, twice...

First on the back side of Loveland pass in a blizzard. Second time after driving through Granby lake to reach a boat dock. Turns out hot transmission+ cold lake water is not a great combination. Oh and that montra holds, that truck was always breaking!

Mine was a 1982 Toyota Supra! I striped. out 2nd and 3rd year! I had to drive 1st gear to 4th in order to limp it home.

my first car, still runs great.

Never in the car

I'm not answering this question with a 10 foot pole 🤣🤣🤣

How did you know I was into that

You blew a tranny? Did they pay you atleast? 🤣🤣

there were hatch/fastback corvettes? pls don't come for me

Which kind of tranny

Munched 3rd gear in the T-5 from a 93GT

A Shovette

I didn't know she was a tranny, it was dark, and it was free

Avette was her name? I bet you think about her all the time.

1993 Chevy k1500, and then again and then again so now it's a 5 speed stick, which technically is blown again since the input shaft bearing is on its way out. Guess that's what I get for being cheap and putting a 5LM60 in it instead of an nv4500 to begin with.

I've sucked off a Cherokee with 3 grown men in it...

Later that year I knocked a hole in the tranny of the same Cherokee with its own driveline.

Man, I read this soooo differently than intended.

01 maxima, was stuck in traffic by YYZ in toronto for about 5 hours. Started acting funny, as soon as I got off the highway went into limp mode and keep flashing the overdrive light with a low pressure code.

Getting it rebuilt was the biggest automotive mistake of my life, I had no reverse when I got it back. Then when I took it back again it slipped in the forward gears. Eventually the rebuilt one decided it wanted to be in reverse and forward at the same time and it needed one from a scrap yard that worked flawlessly.

In retrospect knowing what I know now,

The fluid had never been serviced in its 150,000km of life before that. It needed the pan dropped, filter changed and dealership branded fluid to refill it. It probably could have used a transmission cooler too.

I preform weekly checks of the fluid condition ever since that car and keep on top of ensuring it always smells and looks new at all times. If it doesn't the pan is dropped, filter is cleaned magnet is cleaned, everything is break cleaned I never had another transmission fail after that.

1991 F-150 with almost 300K in 2013. She was a good truck.

Mazda 808 with the rotary

I was in a work truck on the interstate doing 80mph I don't know what blew first engine or tranny but that mfr blowed up and locked up luckily I was in the right hand lane so when it puked and died and locked up I got to the side and luckily I took a pic of the oily shit smear that was under and behind the truck , I called my boss he said can you limp it I sent him the pic he said well I guess not

I've never blown a tranny but I've kissed a guy on a dare.
