Tranny Update....the Audi mech. wants for tranny rebuild is $3,000.
found out that the sorry piece of **** mech that said he could work on the tranny cut my entire exhuast off to get the tranny off...is that right? i never heard the the exhuast needing to come off.
|
Put in a 5 speed. The rebuild wont last a year.
|
would the 5 spd. be cheaper to gather and install? and if so can u give a ballpark figure?
|
$1200-$2000, ball-park figure..........
Depends largely on where you get the parts!
I had a couple salvage yards offer me all the parts for $1000! Start here-<ul><li><a href="http://www.car-parts.com">http://www.car-parts.com</a</li></ul> |
anything i should ask concerning about a Good to Execellet shape 5spd?
|
What did German Transaxle tell you?
A rebuilt automatic from them, I was quoted much less than $3000.
|
German Trans. Axle qouted me est. $2200 for a 12/12 warranted Auto trans.
plus the Audi shop said they would not install a used rebuilt tranny that they did not rebuild be installed buy there shop. so im goin to just get my car towed back to my house and look for a 5spd. that seems like the best and cheaper option.

Re: anything i should ask
Mileage- the lower the better. Anything below 75K's good.
Guarantee-???? Most yards will only guarentee the gearbox, and not the smaller parts. |
Re: German Trans. Axle
Well, thats another option to consider.
Was that quote for rebuilding yours, or a "new" rebuilt unit from GTA? How much for the core charge? How much of the $2200 would you get back after sending yours in? |
$600 is the core charge
|
Re: $2200+$600? Or $2200 then you get back $600?
|
if i dont send in the trashed Auto tranny i get charged another $600...
if i send in the tranny its just $2200.
|
MIkTip, could you please elaborate?
In these postings you say to put in a 5-speed, rebuild won't last a year. In other posts, you've told me about German Transaxle...I'm going to be needing a new tranny around spring (if it lasts that long) for my 90. Probably consider a manual if it's cheaper overall. I sure won't be doing the work myself...Anyway, I sure as hell don't want to get a rebuild only to have it go out...know what I mean?
