Re: Should I buy a new tranny, have the old one rebuilt, or

I still haven't taken it to the dealer, but did take the title and VIN and found out they have maintained it for 6 years.

Can anyone help me out? Oh, I should add, that last time I did it, I didn't remove the steering wheel, which is w...
