where to get surplus automatic tranny?

[vito corleone]

hi, guys. . .my 96 lancer glxi has started giving transmission problem symptoms and my mechanic at the casa has suggested na ibaba na ang tranny which will cost a lot of money, not apt for the present value of the car. . .

one good option will be buying a surplus automatic transmission. . .me maisa-suggest ba kayo na reliable supplier (sila na rin ang magkakabit with warranty) pwede kong puntahan?. . . preferrably dito sa metro as i live in quezon city. . .

also, i haven't done this before kaya kung me mga hepful tips kayo jan, esp from the people na naka-experience na. . .i would really appreciate it. . .

maraming salamat. . .

It's almost a hit and miss kind of thing. Best to have a trusted shop do the actual tranny swap for you. It's also possible for the shop to get some sort of warranty on the tranny so if you experience some problems with the replaced tranny, it would be less of a headache.

I've had my automatic tranny replaced. My car is a Corolla. The shop who did the tranny swap went through three transmissions before they got one that worked fine. Sometimes its a matter of electronics because one of the trannys that didn't work was because it was not compatible to my existing tranny control box.

bring it to a shop and let them be the one to source the tranny for you, for reasons stated by GH. try speedyfix

thanks, asus, gh

yeah, my mechanic at mitsubishi also advised taking the auto to a shop that is capable of doing the tranny swap. . .mga magkano ba magagastos ko for a tranny swap, labor, etc

also, ano ang mga things to pay attention to when going thru such a process. . .help naman mga repapips. . .

peace of christ!

see the automatic transmission facts thread sa workshop-sticky remember those thing in choosing a good surplus a/t

[speedyfix]

installing the tranny is easy... it's finding one in good working condition that is the tough part.

last i inquired, 13k ang surplus tranny sa banawe para sa lancer itlog glxi. gusto kasi ng mga shops dun, sila na din magkakabit kaya mahal pag tranny lang bibilhin mo at mas mura kung sila magkakabit. depende din siguro sa bargaining skills mo. i think okay din para makahingi ka ng warranty at madali nilang mapalitan kung me problema yung makuha mo. I forgot which shops i inquired. sorry.

[speedyfix]

kung ipakabit mo where you buy it you will get a better warranty.

13 k. . .hmmm. . .hindi na masama, kesa sa cost ng rebuild. . .salamat, mga pre. . .

sa inyo, speedyfix, wala ba?
