Hello

I'm trying to determine at what point in my service history with a particular Dodge dealer my transmission was removed from my engine. The re-assembly of the transmission resulted in a failure of the torque converter causing severe damage due to bolts falling out of the converter/fly wheel<?>

It's my understanding that to replace the rear-main seal (oil leak), the transmission must be removed, but upon inspection of the work-order that I thought was my smoking gun, I'm not seeing any smoke. Can someone look at this and tell me if they would have removed the bell-housing from the engine to accomplish? I honestly do not even see a rear main seal being replaced, even though this was on the workorder...

That is what they did. You have a rear main seal leak but it doesn't say they fixed it. How long after this repair did the torque converter bolts come loose?

~6 months. August the work was done. There was major scoring to the backside of the block that the out of town tech said they've been working their way in for a while. I've got a post on here showing the bolts were ground down real bad too.. I'll see if I can find it.
