ahh i am not the only one

hey buddy you are in for a hurtin on your pocket !! make sure you are sitting down , it costed me $2300. for the trany to be rebuilt and the motor mounts all replaced mine were all broken. the car was abused by the first owner, he never had the fluid changed and the car had 115K on the orignal fluid the filter was more than pluged up it was full of junk from the clutches and what ever. but that is how much it cost me for amco to rebuild the whole thing!!
Good Luck!!!

Rebuild at the dealer is like $3G+. I got a used one for $900 + another 4 or 500 to swap em. After all was said and done with mine it was around $1600.

Should find out something tomorrow. Sevice writer did say since the car was able to drive he thinks that might just be the silenoids. This is something that does occur in these cars instead of a full blown tranny. Hopefully I will get good news tomorrow.

Whoa, really? How can you tell the difference? What's it driving like? Mine has been slipping for months now and I've been putting the repair off...

Not sure whats gonna happen with the parts. Gonna for sure take my system and my exhuast for sure. Intake will probably go with the car, and as far as all the OEM parts will stay on the car.

Well, the Friend is on... hacking accounts and leaving an update... I have done a LOT of reading on all these trannies and is seems that the first place to start is in the solenoids reguardless of wether the dealerships tell you that you need a new tranny or not! Thats where I will start... around 200 bucks. I have found a trans with 30k for 600 at a insurance auction. You guys have no idea on how I tried to get gDubb to keep this car and sell it on Ebay... but I understand that if you need a car now / you dont fock around for a couple of weeks. I am just glad I have been a good friend to him and that I had the money he wanted... Gdubb / sorry for hacking I couldn't set up my own account... not sure why?
