I'm trying to figure out if it is worth it to replace the transmission on my
95 Grand Cherokee Laredo. Last week a hose broke on one of the transmission lines. Fluid was pouring out everywhere. I barely made it home and the car was barely moving by the time I got home. The garage suggested putting in about 3 quarts and try driving it to them the following morning (about a mile) . Well I made it 4 blocks and then had it towed. They replaced the line and I picked it up yesterday. When I drove home, the transmission kept slipping. It would get up to about 35 and then just rev the engine while not picking up any speed. It seemed to help if I put the car into 2nd gear. But the revs on the tran where really going. The car has approx 150,000. They thought to get a transmission would be about $1,600. I don't know if it is worth it to get the car fixed. Any help would be appreciated- posted
