I have issues with my 95 automatic and had it checked out by a local mechanic that I trust.
I know he checked the valve body and and a couple other things and its clear the parts were actually checked because all the muck is gone and the threads are shiny
He says its fried and he guesses the clutch packs. It wont stay in 4th any more.
He gave me a price for putting in a used trans and for having the existing one rebuilt for $1700
The care has 210,000 on it and he recommends just getting something else
I have called a couple junk yards in my area and I can get a used trans from a 98 for $600 and the car has 77,000 on it
A quick flip thru my hanes manual shows having to take the engine and trans out together, i thought that was odd
Has anyone changed one of these ? I have a garage, tools, and some experienced help if I need it. Its been a while since I did a job that big. Any known issues with putting a 98 trans in a 95 ?
Anyone have a reccomendation ?
thanks, DaveV
