If your transmission is in such bad
shape that repairs aren’t enough to correct the problem, you might
want to have it rebuilt or replaced. To help you make an informed
decision, we’ve highlighted a few of the benefits and drawbacks of
transmission rebuilding below. When you need transmission service in

How Does a Transmission Rebuild Work?
During a rebuild, the transmission is
removed and totally disassembled. A mechanic will thoroughly inspect
the transmission and clean it using a special transmission cleaning
solution. Parts that have worn out will be replaced. The mechanic
will modify the transmission according to the manufacturer’s
guidelines if the vehicle’s manufacturer has resolved any design
flaws.
The Benefits of Rebuilding
While neither repairing nor replacing a
transmission is inexpensive, a transmission rebuild will save you
money. Rebuilding a vehicle might cost anywhere from $1,500 to
$3,000, depending on the brand and model. The cost of a complete
replacement might range from $1,500 to $4,000. Another advantage of a
rebuild is that it can extend the life of your vehicle by several
years. In addition, it’s typical for shops to provide a second
warranty with your rebuild, which covers any future repairs.
Rebuilding Carries Risks
Rebuilding is a lengthy process.
Because of how time-consuming the procedure is, it can take anywhere
from two to three days to complete. Keep in mind that a rebuild is
not the same as a new transmission, so you may have to deal with
additional issues in the future. You shouldn’t have any large charges
to worry about as long as your shop offers a warranty.
