Thread: Hi. Drive does not work. I think I need a new trans. Help please.

Thanks Trannyman!

I just checked right now and the car does not move in drive nor third. First, Second and reverse work fine...

Looks like ill be heading to a dealership to take a look at a few cars...

Theres no way I can afford a $2000 repair. Ill take a look at my options. Im not going to jump to a conclusion any time soon but just to see my options.

Hey Dave, how much would you estimate this repair to cost? Parts and labor etc. Final price.

You are pretty close on your estimated cost to repair it and it is going to need rebuilt for repair as almost no shop will tear that far into a transmission to replace only a band and then put it back together with everything else being original. My base High Perf 4T65E transmission price is $1499.95 and I charge $450 for installation which is a pretty average price though I do hear of installs being in the $600-$800 range now and then depending where you are at and what your local shops want to charge. I am currently running a special through the 4th of July on my High Performance rebuilds starting at $1299.95

^^ you cant beat that price! if you were closer i would help ya pull the tranny out
