Gold transmission fluid?
There isn't a single fluid in that car that should be gold.
Don't get a rebuild transmission from just anyone... get one from Triple Edge Performance.
You NEED a built transmission because of how much power that engine makes.
Read in a thread over on OQCGP that the Al engine transfers more heat to the transmission than the 3800 hence the higher failure rate (added power also deals more damage). But it was suggseted to get a fairly beefy tranny cooler from a good company like B&M installed. Post was from guy at Cartuning actually.
$1650 + shipping + core for a TEP + installation.
A TEP tranny will shift much better, retain all features and last longer.
