if you have the cash, get a rebuilt unit with from a reputable shop that uses SONNAX repair kit and a new TQ converter, will easily be $5000 but will be reliable.

If you are trying to conserve money, make sure you change the transmission fluid every other oil change with drain and refill. You also have a trans fluid filter that I suggest replacing.
