I THINK ITS CRANKWALK WHAT HAPPEN TO MY CAR BUT I JUST NOTICED SOMETHING, I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT A MONTH AGO TO GET THE TIMING BELT CHANGED AND JUST SAW THAT ONE OF THE BELTS I DONT KNOW IF IT IS THE A/C BELT, OR THE ALTERNATOR BELT THAT ITS NOT BEEN INSTALLED PROPERLY AND ITS ALMOST BEEN RIPPED APART. DO ANY OF YOU GUYS KNOW IF ANY OF THESE BELTS (NOT THE TIMMING BELT) MOVES WITH THE CRANKSHAFT AND THATS WHAT ITS CAUSING THAT MY CAR WONT SHIFT GEARS?

both belts go to the crank pulley but neither would be damaged by a walking crankshaft if it move that much it would not run
as far as the trans is you check engine light on? i dont see a crankshaft walking to cause it not to shift

if theres anything wrong with it take it back to the shop that redid the timing and tell them they screwed something up, make them pay for and fix it.

the crank pulley has to be pulled from crank shaft they may have damaged the crank pulley during the timming belt job i would definetly take it back to wher you had the work done and have them re check it
