Fix it ASAP. I had the main bearings replaced in mine not long ago. By the looks of mine it could have been a matter of days and my transmission would have been shot. Don't wait. Not sure of what resources you have, so I don't know which will be more expensive for you: new tranny or labor to have yours fixed.

Come on do it yourself and dont pay for labor. ITs way to expensive all you need is the right tools and some time like a weekend and your fine.

I have a pet cat, when will it die?

That question is impossible to answer.

10 if tying your shoes is a problem, 2 for an expert mechanic. I'd guess around 7-8 for you. It can be difficult for a beginner without a full set of tools or the knowledge to use them, however it can be one of the greatest automotive learning experiences you'll ever have... not to mention it'll save you hundreds of dollars.
