My mechanic down here charges about 300 bucks to do trannys. I'm guessing if you get it done at a dealership, prolly near the thousand range.

That must be just Labor I assume. I was looking for total cost for the new ****** and install. He wants to sell by Sunday and of course all the ****** shops are closed till Mon.

A friend of mine bought one off of ebay for $500 I believe. The shop he took it to charged him $250 to put it in.

I'm guessing that's a D Series engine you have right? D series ******'s are pretty cheap on ebay. But yeah that was just labor...I've seen some ******'s on ebay for around 3 to 5 hundred

I see, so its probably safe to tell my Dad it will be from $800-$1200 probably right?

my girls dad got the 1999 honda accord. lx or something like that. $2,187 at the dealership. every thing new. they used the ****** case with new parts. my buck regal they wanted 1800 and up for my ******. if it has alot of miles and has other problems let the car go. my ford might be on its way out. try lucas ****** fix its worth a try. 10 bucks at any auto store.

Well you gotta see how much they will charge in labor at different places, but the trannys you can get cheap...

That might be a warning, wanting to sell it fast, ask if he'll extend, if he gives some bs reason, i'd be careful.

front wheel drive trannys normally cost between 1500-2000 to rebuild...if anyone is charging "a couple hundred bucks" to rebuild a ******, they are ful of shit. Now if they just need to service it, maybe tighten up the bands ... thats a different story

Every time I read this section, I'm reminded of why this is the WORST place to ask for help with car problems. The D-series was used in the Civic. Never the Accord though. They've had EK, EL, ES, A, B, F, C, H, J, K, and N-series engines. But never D.

When it comes to transmissions, there is no 'usually'.

I have a 2000 accord 2.3L and the ****** itself is $3000 and labor is like $850.....

I just replaced it, it was slipping really bad.... I got honda to pay for the ****** and i just had to pay labor even tho the car had 130k miles on it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
