6500$ to rebuild a tranny??!!

[roshan01]

so i have been having tranny problems with my bj..

i got a quote from a guy in san fernando this morning for 6500$ to rebuild my tranny.
the hold light is blinking ,
he said the tranny is sliping causing it to send wrong codes,,,



anyway
i need a second opinion

does anyone know where i can go to have this checked?

thanks tuners..

buy a new one, or get a gearbox, both options are cheaper. A guy in the bamboo offered me a gearbox for 1500 the other day.

i would buy it in a heartbeat right now!!!!

check jenton or winston mahabir. it faster to sell an automatic car than a manual and u have better resale with automatics. better re-build the auto or if u not planning to sell in a while and can handle the manual in all this traffic then there's your obvious choice. good luck.

buying a used tranny is ah shoot and miss.........stay away from this option.....if you dont mind the 5fwd thats the best option

[roshan01]

[mazdamig]

Gearbox time rebuild tranny waste of money
