I have to say im not sold on them. My job isnt directly with mechanical repairs- its body repairs but one vehicle a 06 comes to mind - its trans has been in and out of the truck like 4-5 times and was replaced with a reman unit once already and 2 flexplates all before 50k!! you really do need to speak to a builder of them.
A broken flex plate sounds like a driver problem to me!
