I never said advertising on IG was a bad thing. Most of us just found it funny that she was advertising her IG in her earlier panic threads asking for help. Speaking of which, for some reason, her earlier threads got deleted, so I can't link them to you, but they're much like this.

Looking back at my post you quoted, I probably could have worded that better.

How does one manage to downshift from 6th to 2nd?

Why would he attempt to downshift at all doing 140 MPH?

Why was he doing 140 MPH?

Please don't tell me that you let your ex drive your car after you broke it off... Because that'll explain a lot if that was the case.

Either way, have you tried going after your ex since he apparently had extreme gross negligence in driving your car?

What I'm saying is that it takes a LOT of effort to go into 2nd gear at 140mph. It's a lot more force than you think; you have to seriously muscle/jam it in...

Even 4th at 140mph will result in a blown engine.

Honestly idk what he did bro i wasn't even in the country when i found out so im just telling you guys what the dealership told me the details are still blurry considering the fact that im not on talking terms with him or have the time or patience to deal with him and what his excuse was for ruining my car.

He should really be the one paying for the damages, not you.

Damn..that sucks :/ have you considered like getting a lawyer or something? If it's really not an option at all..Then I guess buying the parts and having a shop install it for you would be best. Dunno how the guy lived though. Wheels would of locked. Either way he's a ****.
