automatic gearbox leaking, advice on buying car.

Post by ian »

I found a volvo 940 for sale that hasn't been clocked, engine and gearbox work very smoothly and looked after,not had a dog in it, no rust, interior looked after, paintwork ok. If anyone can help me I'd be really grateful.

The automatic gearbox is leaking. Is that a big expense and would I be better holding out for a manual which is cheaper to repair.

The engine has an oil leak.

What I'm not sure is, are oil leaks just a case of replacing gaskets, or is replacing a gasket such a big job that labour would cost
