You should generally expect to spend at least $1000 to replace a transmission. As much as $2000 can be the case. Most transmissions that go in to cars are rebuilt professionally by companies who do that sort of thing. I personally would refrain from buying a transmission from a junkyard or something like that.Saxo 1.4i-green gunk in radiator tank?

It's not worth it. A transmission is gonna be as high as the car... My boyfriend has a old *** suburban but he got new paint and so on.. but he had the transmission replaced and it ran him 1500 bucks!! Because it's a lot of work and not to mention the mechanic is gonna have to take it out and drop it in there. I would shop around because that's some major work that needs to be done when you want to replace a transmission, so it's like all you're paying for is just a car that doesn't run whatsoever, then another 1000-1500 or more just for one part... It's gonna be really pricy regardless of what car you buy if a transmission needs to be replaced, and that is the breaking point wether to get it fixed or get a new car, and the majority of the time, it's better to get a new car... Now you can price to see how much it will cost to get it rebuilt, but it's still gonna be costly. You can call around to junkyards and see how much, but don't count it though... especially because it's a foreign car.. Don't waste your time and find another car.1987 Jeep Grand Wagoneer Shaking??
