Grunff, Having not seen the transmission driver with my own eyes, I'm not sure how worn it was. For all I know it may have been too worn to swap sides. But I'm content paying for a new one (rather than switching them), since I'd have to pay for the labor if they fail again before I can afford a garage :) The car is non-turbo btw.
