why? you don't trust your mechanic?
Ask yourself??
If he can't tell you what it is 100% for sure, than should he be working on your car?
ALso, if you don't trust him 100% than why would you let him do work on your car?

vehicle speed sensor w/ power steering. If it broke you're probably going to have to go exploring in the tranny to get the other piece out before you get a new one. Go to the junkyard and get one.

the piece that broke off is the mounting bracket for the vss that should not be in the diff case being that most of the time those are broken when the vss is not fully seating when the bolt is cranked down. junkyards are the best place to find one but you can get them through honda for something around $300 thats what they quoted me here.
