Dodgy?

As some may know,

I run into a fair bit of trouble driveline wise…

Now, end of last year I had my driveplate/flexplate, torque converter and pump assembly all replaced…Cost me an arm and a leg.
Probably about 1000km of driving and the car was off the road again, this time, gearbox was shagged.
Left it off the road as I was using my girlfriends Micra as she had her license suspended.

Anyways, took it to a different workshop this time to get the box rebuilt, trans cooler and 3g stall.
Old mate pulled the box apart (free of charge) and has pin pointed the gearbox failure to the PUMP. Which the previous workshop should have replaced.

I have an invoice from the previous shop that says they replaced the pump assembly. The previous workshop also has a ’12 month guarantee’ on all their work…

The bloke at the workshop said to me that the pump was defiantly not replaced 1000km as the amount of wear on it shows otherwise. This bloke has 30 years experience with autos so I do believe him.

Another thing the current workshop said, is that the converter that’s in it now is on it’s way out….Wait, didn’t the previous workshop replace it with a new one as per the invoice??

Now, do I have a leg to stand on it I contact the previous workshop with all the evidence I have and try and get a win out of it?
Considering my new built box is costing upwards of 4g with the pump assembly ALONE costing $900…

Oh and if it helps, I’m pretty sure the previous workshop puts your Odometer reading on the invoice…Could use that to prove the car has only done around 1000km since it was there.

Any advice on what I could do? I feel like I could be flogging a dead horse…
