Help Hari replace the transmission and return to work
Hari drives for a living in Coimbatore, and a broken transmission has stopped all income for 6 weeks.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 6 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $250 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $180
• Labor charges: $40
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $5
With deep gratitude,
Hari

So sorry you're going through this, Hari. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Jinja so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Barcelona
so sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Coimbatore.
Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.

sending strength, Hari. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Campinas.
Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best!
Sending love, Hari. Hope you get there. Blessings.
keep going. Small businesses are the heart of Coimbatore. Hope you're open again soon. Love from Pelotas.
Thanks for sharing this, Hari. Hope the shop reopens soon.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Coimbatore.
