They wern't wrong were they? I think it's just a shame that he had to waste a week and probably several hundred dollars to come to the conclusion that had already been stated.

The first place recommended replacing the transmission based on pulling the dipstick, and seeing nasty-looking fluid. That's a more than reasonable
opinion, but before offering to take a few thousand dollars from the owner, they should've dropped the pan, just to make sure. The mess that was found by the
third shop would've been all the explanation that was needed.
