Thread: Mechanically inclined noob

Spoiler alert: you are on a tight budget and have minimal knowledge working on a car. A custom transmission is so far out of your price and knowledge range don't waste your time thinking about it. You bought the wrong car if you want a manual transmission.

For the coolant, just do what Scotty says and you'll be fine. When you are refilling the coolant, you can't instantly fill it full - it takes some time for the coolant to flow into the whole system. That is why you'll have to keep topping it off.

Well I feel confident enough to at least rebuild my transmission.

Really?? Your a noob to cars and you feel confident that you can rebuild the 4T65E? Usually people that do this kind of work have had some type of dealership training, or some other on-the-job training with skilled people, etc.
