There is no component more complex and essential than a car’s transmission. Automatic transmissions are responsible for shifting gears without driver input to change gear ratios in an efficient manner as the vehicle moves forward, freeing the driver from having to shift gears manually.
What Transmission Do I Have?
Transmissions are needed because internal combustion engines always output the greatest amount of power at a high rotational speed. At this high rotational speed, it is impossible for this high power to be driven to the wheels to be used for acceleration, low speeds or starting.
Using gear ratios, an automatic transmission reduces the engine’s rotational speed and increases the torque (or “power” to the wheels) in the process, using a torque converter as a fluid coupler.

Vehicles are usually described as 5 or 6 “speed” meaning then have that many gear ratios to allow the vehicle to travel at the full range of speeds required and to make use of the engine’s output power as efficiently as possible.
Due to their complexity, constant use and function within a vehicle’s operation, transmissions experience a lot of wear and tear. Add to this the fact that many owner’s forget to check and change the fluid on a regular basis and it’s easy to understand why so many people have transmission problems.
Average Cost of Rebuild, Repair, and Replace:
Transmission replacement is one of the most expensive jobs done by any mechanic. According to Transmission Repair Cost Guide readers, the average cost of transmission replacement ranges from $1800 to $3400.
A used/salvage transmission ranges from $800 to $1500, a rebuilt transmission from $1100 to $2800 and a remanufactured from $1300 to $3400.
The labor to remove and replace a transmission ranges from $500 to $1200 for 4 to 10 hours of billed time.
Differences between rebuilt vs remanufactured? Check out our complete guide.
Rebuilds can cost just as much as a replacement depending on the extent of the damage. The upper end of the range is typically for the replacement of a high end vehicle’s transmission or a complete rebuild after a major mechanical failure.
Basic repair jobs are on the lower side, from $300 to $1400. For example, fixing a manual transmission often only requires a new clutch, a $800 to $1500 job.
Ways To Save Money
-Buying a remanufactured transmission yourself and only pay a local repair shop for the labor to install it (instead of paying the markup on a unit they buy). Use the guide below.

More Information by Transmission Type
Factors that Affect the Cost
The cost of transmission repair varies widely based on a number of factors, the most important of which is the type and extent of the repairs being performed by the mechanic.
If the transmission needs to be completely replaced or rebuilt, drivers can expect to pay several thousand dollars for parts and skilled labor, while a few minor repairs and a fluid change will only be a couple hundred dollars.
Make
It also depends on the make of the vehicle, with US domestic models such as GM, Ford, Chrysler generally cost less than imported vehicles such as BMW, Mercedes and Volkswagen.
Extent of the Damage
What the car has been through can also affect the price as newer cars that have been well maintained will cost less than those that have been through tough times.
Old vs New
Considerably older or rarer cars are harder to find parts for, which also increases the cost.
Manual vs Automatic
Manual transmissions generally cost less to repair/replace than automatic transmissions.
Shop
Some shops charge higher prices than others for the same work (due to brand, location, reputation, etc.)
Your Location
Finally, the driver’s location will contribute a great deal to the overall cost of the procedure. Areas with higher costs of living, higher demand of services and/or lower availability of skilled technicians will charge higher hourly labor costs, escalating the overall price.
On average, a remanufactured transmission will cost between $1,300 and $3,400, depending on the make and model of your vehicle. The cost of labor to install it is in addition to the price of the unit and will typically run between $500 and $1200.
It is usually more expensive to replace your transmission with a remanufactured transmission than to have your transmission rebuilt at a transmission shop. However, if there is significant internal damage, the additional components (hard parts) required to get it back on the road can cause the final price of a transmission rebuild to be higher than a remanufactured transmission.
Here are the other differences between rebuilt vs. remanufactured transmissions.
As mentioned previously, when deciding whether to rebuild or replace a transmission it is important to know that either option can be more cost effective, depending on how complex and extensive the issues are (it can take a long time to troubleshoot and repair some problems, in which case a replacement would save you money).
Making this decision is difficult for the average consumer, which is why it’s so important to find a trustworthy mechanic.
Symptoms of a Problem
There are a number of symptoms of a damaged or worn out transmission to watch for, some of which are listed below.
Many problems can be solved/avoided by regularly changing a car’s transmission fluid or getting the transmission flushed on a regular basis as recommended by the owner’s manual (recommendations are typically between every 30-50,000 miles).
A single mechanical failure can cause the car’s engine to shut down and disable it entirely, so it is important to watch for these signs and get your car inspected at the first sign of trouble.
- Transmission is slipping between gears while driving or popping back to neutral
- Unusual grinding/clunking/humming noises – especially when in neutral
- Fluid smells like it is burned
- Clutch is dragging – clutch stays engaged and causes grinding noises when trying to shift
- Grinding or thumping when gear changes instead of smooth transitions
- Lag/delay between gear changes and/or higher than normal RPMs for a given speed or gear change
In the event that a transmission does begin to fail in some way (or fails completely), mechanics will often recommend a replacement, a rebuilding process, or other smaller repairs to ensure that the car will function properly and reliably. Each type of repair has different procedures and costs associated with it.
Has your transmission completely failed? Here are your 8 options to repair, replace, junk it, etc.
A full transmission replacement is one of the most expensive procedures a mechanic can perform on a vehicle. The cost of the other option – getting a transmission rebuilt – can be significantly less if the problem(s) can be fixed by simple procedures that deal with easy-to-replace parts.
However, it can also cost just as much or more than replacement in cases when there are major issues that need to be addressed. It all depends on how comprehensive the repairs are: from installing a few new parts to a complete overhaul.
Rebuilding involves removing the transmission, opening the case, inspecting and cleaning all the components and replacing the “soft” parts that are damaged or worn out. Some of these parts include seals, O-rings, bands, gaskets, valves, clutch components and filters.
Drums, shafts, pumps, converters, the casing and gears are referred to as the “hard parts” and rarely break because they are much more durable and rarely break. This process takes no more than 2-3 days in most cases.
If problems are caught early on, minor repairs are far more budget-friendly as they do not require complete removal/disassembling or replacement of “hard” parts, though the costs vary depending on the make and model of the vehicle and several other factors discussed below.
When it’s time to get a car’s transmission fixed, there are a few things to keep in mind in order to ensure high value, great work, and long-lasting results.
The Process: How a Transmission is Rebuilt
The process of rebuilding a transmission is rather lengthy and labor-intensive. Mechanics must disassemble the transmission to look for problems and replace the parts that are causing it to not function properly. Through this process, the part(s) causing the mechanical failure are eventually found and replaced instead of having to install a brand new transmission.
Generally speaking, there are three different aspects that must be checked before any transmission rebuild or replacement:
1) Changing the Fluid
The first is probably the easiest, and definitely the most affordable: changing the transmission fluid.
The cause of many problems is low or dirty transmission fluid, which can also cause the vehicle’s fuel economy decrease. This causes shifting to become noticeably “stickier” and, in some cases, the car will change gears and stay stuck in neutral. This “fix” often costs less than $100, though many vehicle owners find that they can do it themselves.
2) Checking for Trouble Codes
Next, the mechanic checks the vehicle’s computer system that controls automatic shifting (for automatics). Transmission slipping and hard shifts can actually be caused by the computer if it is not reading the RPM correctly. Sensors can be easily replaced without disassembling a transmission, so this is the second easiest (and cheapest) repair that can fix the problem(s).
3) Test Drive & Inspection
After a number of diagnostic tests including test driving the vehicle and a comprehensive inspection, the technician will remove the transmission from the vehicle and disassemble it.
Each part is inspected, cleaned and replaced if necessary (especially if it is outdated). Parts such as seals and gaskets are replaced anyway. The electrical system is tested and any required repairs are made.
If the problem was found and none of the “hard” components require attention, the unit is assembled and reinstalled into the engine. After another test drive to ensure everything is working properly, the car is returned to its owner.
Check if the Warranty is Still Valid
This might seem obvious to some, but if your vehicle is still relatively new/low mileage you should call the dealership or check the owner’s manual to see if your transmission’s problem is still covered by your powertrain warranty before calling a mechanic.
A typical powertrain warranty is for 5 years or 50K miles (whichever comes first), but they vary widely depending on the manufacturer and can range anywhere from 4-10 years and 50,000-100,000 miles. The following components are typically covered: transmission case and all internal parts, torque converter, converter housing, automatic control module, transfer case and all internal parts, seals, gaskets.
A warranty will cover the cost of repairs (parts and labor) if the damage was caused by poor workmanship or a manufacturer defect. However, if the vehicle’s maintenance schedule was not followed then the warranty might be void and not be honored.
Parts that experience significant wear-and-tear and are expected to be replaced at regular intervals such as CV joints and boots and clutches are excluded from most warranties. Certain components may or may not be covered depending upon the manufacturer of your vehicle. Refer to your owner’s manual for a complete list of what is and is not covered.
Find the Right Repair Shop
Due to their complexity and how difficult they are to service, choosing the right mechanic to handle your transmission can make the difference between a long-lasting repair and one of questionable quality.
As with any car maintenance, it’s best to get a quote from a certified technician or repair center before making an assumptions. In fact, it’s generally a good idea to gather multiple quotes and compare prices in order to make a sound decision based on quality and value.
Do some research both online and locally and to find highly rated shops that have solid reputations with online reviews and your local BBB.
The cheapest service is not always the best option as some repair shops offer unrealistically low prices in order to get you into their shop so they can add hidden/additional fees onto the final price.
Consider getting friends or family to recommend a mechanic who repaired a transmission for them and did quality work.
In fact, a warranty should be the number one thing that drivers look for when choosing a repair shop.
Looking for a shop? Try our shop finder. We typically recommend shops that are willing to install transmissions on behalf of customers.
Due to the wide range and severity of problems that can occur and the variance of costs involved, it is advised to get mechanics to explain exactly what is wrong with your transmission and what has to be done to fix it. They should also be able to give you a clear estimate as to what the price will be once they have done basic diagnostic tests.
Finally, drivers should pay attention to the appearance of the repair shop itself. Good repair shops are clean, inviting, and customer-centered. Less attractive options are dirty, poorly operated, and not as focused on the customers they’re supposed to be serving.
With careful attention to certifications, warranties, and shop conditions, it’s easy to find a low-cost, high-value transmission repair shop that can get the job done right.

What Transmission Do I Have?
Have a Question or Experience?
Had a repair, replacement or rebuild done in the past? Have a quote on a job and not sure if it’s too high? Have a question about a particular situation with your transmission? Post your comments below.
How much should it cost to get my tranny rebuilt if I pull it out myself and take the tranny to him? It’s an AW4 tranny out of my 88 jeep Cherokee automatic. I called to get some quotes, but the more the better.
Hi,
I have Honda Accord 2004 EX V6.
I was having a shifting gear problem, then I drove to AAMCO trans repair shop.
They asked me to leave the car for a day, next when they call me and said that trans mission need to be rebuild soft parts and hard parts estimate was $3200.
I told them that I don’t have that amount right now I need some time and went to shop to pickup the car but car wont move at all, when I drove the car to their shop.
According to them they didn’t do anything bad with a car. My car has only 105,000ML
on it. Can help me out please, where should I take my car for cheap repair I live in Central jersey, NJ. I heard some shop in NYC are pretty cheap.
I have a 2010 Saturn Vue with about 60k miles. When I accelerate, there’s a whining noise and every so often it jerks when shifting. Also, a time or two this week, the RPMs were jumping. I took it to a GM dealer…they said there was a crack in the transmission case and that it wouldn’t be covered by the warranty. Does this sound right? Technician said it can’t be covered because something must have hit the case and caused the damage. Estimate was $4000!
I have a 2001 Volkswagen Passat – 130K miles. Yesterday it started ‘jerking’ when coming out of reverse. It also revs the RPMs up really high (3-4) when just starting from a complete stop- like at a light, and takes a little bit to build speed. It eventually gets up to speed, but not fast enough for the cars behind me! 🙂 It also shifts pretty hard and it’s an automatic. I took it to a little mom and pop shop and they said it was something with the transmission (didn’t give me any specifics – grrr), but they’re not comfortable working on a VW so they recommended a few other places. Do you think the entire transmission needs to be replaced/ refurbished? Or could it be something that could be a minor repair. I called one of the shops and they told me it would be a flat $3000. Is this a repair I need to fix immediately or could I just be really careful for a month or so to save up some money? The car is only worth $4-5K, so I’m really debating how much work to put into it. Thanks!
I’m on vacation and my 2006 X-Terra with 152,000 miles transmission is fried. I drove 20 miles to dealer at 20 mph (as fast as she’d go). Dealer said its the crack in the radiator leaking into the transmission. Quote of $5400 to get 12 month 12,000 mile warranty transmission and radiator or $6500 for a 3 yr or unlimited mileage. Advise? Going to call around to see if I can find another shop. Being 9 hrs from home not knowing anyone to ask makes me nervous about the repairs.
Hi Megan;
Even for a 4×4 that sounds a tad stiff. I would shop that price around a bit.
However, you have a problem that is all too common. Antifreeze is corrosive as all get out, and you are using your transmissions cooling lines to pump it directly into the heart of your transmission. Whatever you do, be absolutely certain that a dedicated transmission cooler is included in the job. A quality transmission cooler can be had for just over $100 on the high end, and it’s well worth it. In fact everybody who has an automatic transmission would be well advised to go out and buy one TOMORROW, if they don’t already have one.
I had the worse case scenario. 2011 Ford Escape, just bought it Jan 2013 with 68,000 miles. May 2013 with 71,806 miles the truck stalled and died. I had it towed to the Ford dealer where my brother-in-law works (not the one I bought it from) because I was stalled in front of a stoplight and panicking. Originally thought it was the valve body or torque converter but then when they took that off they found metal in valve body and solinoid screens and recommended the transmission be replaced. But after seeing what others have paid, I feel sick. Mine cost $4800, I just paid $18,000 for the truck but didn’t buy an extended warranty because it was only 2 years old.
Hi Karen!
Oddly enough, I am having the SAME issue. I just got my 2013 Ford Escape SEL, and driving on 35E and all of a sudden it EVERYTHING shut off. I had to pull over and get it towed to the nearest Ford Dealership, and they called me later saying that I needed a new transmission! The background of the car is that I got it in April 2015 (I love this escape!) and had 78,xxx on it. I at the time didn’t buy the extended warranty because it was only 2 years old. My question to you is that what did you end up doing?
A friend of mine whose mother decided that his Buick Century should go into the shop while he was out of town ended up with a $2300 bill for transmission work. The car ran fine, had no transmission symptoms of ANY kind. The reason his mother took it in was because the ‘service engine soon’ light came on. That was the ONLY symptom. What are the chances that a car with no symptoms actually needed a new transmission?
Hey Happy Z, it sounds like the shop took advantage of the situation as I would say the chances are quite low if no symptoms were previously noticed. The “service engine soon” or “check engine” light turns on for a wide variety of reasons, from a temporary system error that has little to no effect on performance or safety to a major malfunction of an important electronic component.
That said, it very well could have been a problem with the transmission that caused it to light up. The only way to know what caused it is to run a diagnostic test on the vehicle’s system. Personally, in this situation I would have asked to see the results of the test and have them explain to me what the resulting fault code(s) mean and how they in turn require a complete transmission rebuild/replacement (based on the price you quoted).
My Hyundai Santa FE is 2004, is 183,000 miles suddenly stopped running, start is good, reverse is good, and now I’m not sure if I must get it fixed or get another car… cause if I fixed having to those miles is gonna cause a new problem or the same problem. Im not sure what to do. I’ll be glad to hear comments.
Hi Karla, I’m not sure I completely understand the problem you’re facing. You say it stopped running but the start and reverse is good. Could you explain the problem in more detail?
Based on the age and mileage of your Santa FE, I wouldn’t be surprised that at least some minor transmission work is necessary. I would personally get repairs done (as long as the price is decent), especially if the vehicle is in good shape otherwise.
Thanks for this reply admin. I have a 2004 Santa Fe with 163K and think I will try to get the transmission repaired and keep it running as long as I can.
I have a 2000 Saturn SL2. The transmission whinys like crazy even if its just sitting there in park, and there is also this rubbing/vibrating noise it gets when it goes over 25mph it also shakes the car. I had it to over 4 shops and everyone keeps telling me it’s a wheel bearing or cv joints. I just really need an answer to fix this car does anyone have any ideas????
Hey Samantha, if over 4 shops all say it’s a wheel bearing or cv joint, then I’d say they’re right and you should pay to get it fixed. Based on your description and the fact that it “whinys” even in park, you should address the problem ASAP or you’ll run the risk of damaging the transmission itself. Fixing the current problem will be considerably cheaper than transmission repair. In the case of a cv joint replacement, you’re looking at a $150-$400 job, including labor.
Have a 1999 Nissan Maxima with approx. 120,000 miles. Transmission is on its way out. Took it to a local “transmission” shop who recommended a “re-build” vs. buying a used transmission and having it installed. Told me a “re-build” will cost anywhere from $1,200 to $3,000, depending on parts needed when it is disassembled. Will provide a 3-year warranty on re-build or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. Would appreciate any ideas/thoughts if re-build is better than installing a used transmission and if costs seem reasonable. Thanks.
I have a 96 z28 Camaron and the tranny seems to be messing up it still goes 110 mph but if u go over 3k rpm befor a shift it will just reduce speed and the rpms will go up. Does anyone have a estiment on a rebuild for that
Hi Johnny. Take your car into at least 2 shops to get an estimate on the repairs. Give them as much information as you can and describe the symptoms in more detail.
I have a 2003 Blazer. It wont go into reverse as of yesterday. I have been having issues with it for a month or so. When you are at cruising speed and not accelerating the RPM will go crazy. People have said a vacuum leak for that issue. I wonder if they are related. Anyone have an idea what is going on?
Hi Jim,
What did you find with your transmission? I’ve got a 2000 Blazer and having similar problems. Occasionally wont go into reverse properly, occasionally seems to disengage when going downhill over approx 70km/hr when car speed overruns engine speed, and has started occasionally what i would describe as minor slipping with a small clonk while driving. The old beast is worth less than a replacement transmission so would like to know if you found a solution for your problem or had to get major works???
Thanks
Phil
I was driving along this morning and the car lost power. I have a pristine 2003 Mercury Sable with 133K miles on it that has never had problems and has received the usual timely fluid replacements and exchanges. I pulled over stopped the engine and called AAA. before the tow arrived, I restarted and everything worked great (as always) but when I went to put it in gear (automantic) nothing happened. So I tried reverse nothing happened. Any ideas?
Dan and Justin, sounds like you’ve lost hydrolic pressure. torque converter gears to input shaft stripped, input shaft broke, input shaft splines broken on either side.
My pathfinder is leaking red fluid and doesn’t want to go in drive. Is it because of a bad transmission?
Dave, if your pathfinder is a 2005, there is/was a recall b/c as the mileage is higher it causes a crack in the radiator. Which causes an internal leak to other areas such as the transmission. Nissan will cover it for free up to 80,000 miles, 90,000 a copay of 2500, 100,000 a copay of 3000. After that it’s on you.
I am experiencing that now. My dilema is I am over the mileage. The dealer says I have $10,000 of damage @ my expense, to replace the radiator, transmission and catalytic converter. There is a class action suit against Nissan b/c of this. My problem is they should cover it regardless of the mileage b/c they knew it was defective. My advise is call Nissan.
Got an estimate on a transition rebuild of 4,500-5,000. Is the mechanic asking too much?
Hey Jamie, without knowing the year, make and model of your vehicle it is hard to say whether or not that is a fair price. That is definitely on the expensive side though, unless the car is a luxury import or rare antique.
My advice is to get a couple more quotes from shops in your area to see if they all think that the job will cost that much. You might also want to consider having a re-manufactured transmission installed instead.
Hello,
I drive a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the transmission is going out. It’s still letting me crank and drive… but there’s no guarantee that will last much longer. I’m considering trading it in and making car payments… but I love it and am torn. Do you know of a rough estimate I may be charged to have it repaired? Also, do you think it would be a good idea to have it repaired and then resale? I’ve checked KBB and it’s not looking like it would be worth it…
Thanks so much!
I have the same problem with a 1997 jeep grand, I love her to death her name is dixie I bought her 3 years ago and worked on her. Now she has trouble going more then 15 miles without issues shifting from 2nd to 3rd. I don’t have the answer of how to resolve the issues with mine. I used lucas automatic transmission fluid treatment to help with the last 6,000 miles but now it doesn’t seem to have any effect. Let me know what you do if you buy a new one or just fix it maybe I can take your advice to help my situation with dixie.
Thank You.
I would appreciate any & all input. My 2000 Plymouth Grand Voyager is in need of TRANNY solution. High RPMs maybe once a week but for several days in a row that week. Transmission fault code and light is on intermittently for past 1+ yrs. I am a single parent financially strapped with no outside help. I have $1500 – $2000 I can use for transmission work. I was told my engine is excellent and with everything else I have replaced in past 3 yrs I don’t wanna trade into a worst vehicle financially at this point. I researched Michael’s Transmission in Issaquah WA they are ATRA approved. Help me know what to ask so I am not taken financially. Also, any recommendations to start in rebuild first to keep things less costly?
Hey Kate, sorry to hear about your situation. Based on the information you’ve given, your budget should be enough to cover the cost of the repairs. Given the age of your car, a replacement might be necessary and could cost slightly more than what you’ve set aside. As for finding a shop, being ATRA approved is the first step. Please read the last section of this page for other great tips on finding one that won’t rip you off. Then bring your car into several shops to get several quotes to choose from.
Questions to ask each shop:
What is the problem exactly and what was the cause?
Will a minor repair, rebuild or replacement be required?
What warranties do you offer on your work?
What is your quote?
Then compare their answers.
I just had my transmission replaced a week ago. I only had reverse and a bit of second gear. it cost me about $2800.00
I still seem to be having problems. When its cold it does not want go into second gear only when I warm it up it starts to work. After driving for ten or so minutes it accelerates but does not go to gear. The garage says it may be something else.
I do have problems with fuel pump but brief bouts I need some advice. Thank you.
Hey Victor, since you got it replaced only a week ago, the work should still be under some sort of warranty/guarantee by the garage that did the work. Show them those problems, have them test drive the car and get them to re-do the work or give you your money back so you can go somewhere else. Those all sound like transmission-based problems to me.
I have had two bad transmission experiences, and the larger chains were always the rudest and the most overpriced option (next to the dealerships). Just this year I had a 2006 Chevrolet Uplander rebuilt by Dayton Transmission Repair in Dayton Ohio, and they were the most professional shop I had ever been to. They were $1000.00 cheaper than the large chain phone quotes! Smaller is better in my experience with auto/transmission shops.
A year and half ago my Trans-Am trans was rebuilt cost $1,500.00 now its out again. Trying to find a repair shop that will hopefully do the job and hopefully last longer.
I paid $2100 a couple of weeks ago to have my Chevy silverado’s replaced by Mister Transmission in Toronto. I was quoted $1500-$2000, so I feel like things went okay overall. I had to drive in second gear (drive wouldn’t work) to the service center and the technician announced the transmission dead on arrival so a replacement was the obvious choice.
