Angry I Hate My G56

I recently bought a new 05 CTD w/ the G56, since i brought it home it popped out of third gear, brought it in for warrenty work. Dealer said they'd order me new trans well today while driving it home from the dealer since I forgot my lisence to get a rental car, I downshifted and next thing I know the clutch won't engage so I had to limp home and the truck shakes bad at idle. So tomarrow I need to get it towed to dealer.

I also want to know. FYI, when he installs the new trans tell him to make sure the dual mass flywheel is properly aligned to the trans input shaft. That's where your idle shake is coming from.
