Are there any cases where the source transformation method can't be applied?
When I tried to use the source transformation method on the 12 V voltage source I got the wrong answer. If I transformed the 2 A current source it worked just fine.
Are there any cases when deducing ...

What's the correct method to find the Thevenin Impedance in this circuit?
I cannot find the Zth in the circuit i uploaded; i calculated the correct value of Vth with the following steps:
LKC @ N1:
5 + (0.2)Vo = -Vo/(8+4j)
LKV @ the outer loop:
Vth + Vo - (4-2j)*0.2 - Vo = ...
