hey guys i'm havin problems with ma tranny 1998 accord AUTO and i was wondering how much it would cost me to rebuild it.

 

I've been estimated at 2-3k.

Instead, I'm getting rid of all my aftermarket shit and selling the car before the transmission does die.

You've got an Accord LX, probably 100-120k miles, you might want to think about selling your car too. Your car appears to be a four door as well. You're driving a car with no ammenities and a ticking time bomb.

You might come to the same conclusion I did.

 

the thing is that i only got 50k on my car

 

ouch, i think you should just invest into a used tranny and auto tranny cooler.

 

how much does the used one run for ?? would i be better off goin to convert to stick or should i just fix and sell the car

 

If you like the car convert to 5spd.

 

What issues are you having?
At 50k it may still fit under the Honda warranty extended on the trannies.

I'd go to Honda and get a tranny fluid change and evaluation....much cheaper to do this first then get a new tranny. And you may find out you qualify for a new one if needed, but that is a dealer by dealer call.

 

Call Honda Service, file a case. You might get some help. Also file a complaint on http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/problems/complain/

 

i did a fluid change at honda like a month ago

 

tranny rebuilds cost a grip and the warranties normally arent very good either. i personally dont trust rebuilt trannies. cheapest route would to probably find a used auto tranny and sell or hope that it will last.

my auto tranny also died but i have a 94 5th gen and was spraying a 75shot for almost 2 yrs. i was gonna just slap in another used auto tranny but i figured that with the way i was spraying n2o the auto would take a shit again so i converted to stick since it would be cheaper in the long run (did the labor myself so only paid for parts).
