I got a quote for a remanufactured transmission after mine had no reverse. Bought a transmission online and had it installed at my local mechanic with a 2 year warranty. I think I got a good deal. |

I got an estimate for a rebuilt transmission to replace the one in the car that went up after only 75,000 miles. For a Toyota, that is not good. They are supposed to be reliable. $3600 seem like an awful lot for this small car. Can anyone let me know if this is a fair price or not? Thank you. |

This was a friend (I think) that I assumed was giving me a deal. It took more than a couple of weeks to get back my car. |

Daughter went to leave school in our 2001 Yukon XL with 80,000 miles and it "lurched". Two months out of warranty no less. She said it has been doing that lately (thanks for telling us now, honey!). It would not engage reverse. Towed to shop where it required a full rebuild. Shop provided a GM rebuilt and warranted (3yr, 100k mi) transmission. |

PEP boys removed and replaced my trans. that I had rebuilt. Works fine but pulls to the left. They said that they have to remove the rack to take out the trans. and thought that I declined the alignment option. Is it true that the rack had to be removed or was it just easier? |

My daughter was using my car and she said the car just wouldn't go and she had it towed in to Darien Tire & Auto in Darien, IL because that was the closest shop and the tow truck took it there. I don't know if this shop is good or if they are overcharging me. They are putting in a rebuilt transmission for $1800. Is that too much? |

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF AND ON AT TIMES, THEY KEEP SAYING ITS THE SENSOR, BUT IM NOT SURE. NOW IT SEEMS TO NOT BE SHIFTING INTO GEAR. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL AND IT DOES SEEM TO BE GOING ANYWHERE AND THEN A SECOND LATER IM DOING 40-50 ON THE ROAD. ANY IDEA HOW MUCH THIS SHOULD COST? OR COULD IT BE THE FLUIDS NEED TO BE CHANGED FIRST? |

I have a 2001 MDX (single owner - me) that had it's original transmission replaced right around the time of the expiration of the original warranty. Was making noises; dealer looked at it and replaced it for free so my guess was there was a design flaw as this was the 1st year Acura made an SUV.
It has been running great since but recently the check engine light went on and they think only a sensor needs replacing. if that does not work, they say I'll need a new transmission.
My Q is this - shouldn't a transmission last more than 5 years and perhaps 50,000 miles or is there no hard/fast rule? If I do have it replaced, is there generally some warranty period associated with it to protect your investment at least a while? Thanks. |

I got a new transmission and one month later it went....I was told it was defect and they placed another one in. Well here I am one month after that and that one is now bad and they replacing that one. I'm just glad I paid $400.00 for a lifetime on that now they have to fix any problem with the transmission for free. |

This is the amount I charged for a used transmission. Fluid and filter were extra. All worked out well. I also do trucks. |

This is the quote for labor/new transmission (tax not included). The car is in excellent condition with 100,000 miles just coming up and we bought it in 2005. Question: Should we proceed with a new transmission or consider another used car that would be an unknown factor given the price range we want $6000.00. We are retired and easy driving. I have taken care of the Buick and it is a luxury model, leather, etc.
Dealer mechanic says car reflects good maintenance and looks good. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. |

I think I got a fair deal with this but my neighbor just laughed his ass off, the transmission had to be cleaned and referbed, torque converter had to be replaced, and a few other smaller items |
