FAQs

What is an automatic transmission rebuild?

An automatic transmission rebuild consists of completely disassembling and reassembling a transmission using a complete rebuild kit. The entire transmission requires disassembly and inspection as even minor, hard-to-see damage can lead to major problems down the road.

Each component is inspected for damage or excessive wear. Parts that are in good condition will be thoroughly cleaned for use in the reassembled transmission, while any parts that need to be replaced will be taken care of, including clutches, seals, gaskets and other worn items. Re-assembly must occur according to precise procedures; otherwise the unit will not function properly.

Auto Transmissions R Us have decades of hands-on experience to rebuild transmissions part by part until they are virtually as good as new.

What is the transmission rebuild process?

A transmission rebuild process typically includes:

Removing the transmission from your vehicle and dismantling it.
Chemically cleaning the transmission by running it through a parts washer.
Any wonky transmission parts, plus all seals and gaskets, are replaced with new ones.
Any required electrical repairs are performed.
There may have been advances made in your vehicle’s transmission parts and technology since you purchased your car. If so, these updated parts may be included to improve the performance of your transmission and extend its longevity.
Last but not least, the rebuilt transmission is re-installed in your vehicle.

Is it better to get a transmission rebuilt or reconditioned?

This depends on a few factors. If the cost of rebuilding your transmission exceeds the cost of buying and installing a remanufactured part, that makes the decision a bit easier.

But, if there’s ambiguity in what’s actually damaged and in need of repair, it might be best to have the transmission torn down for inspection. That, of course, costs money, but it’s cheaper than buying brand-new.

How much does it cost to rebuild a transmission?

As with any automotive repair, the cost of a transmission rebuild will vary widely. The cost of rebuilding a transmission is determined by a variety of factors, including the type of vehicle you drive, and how extensive the damage is to your transmission. The only way to get an accurate price for rebuilding a transmission is by taking your vehicle to a transmission specialist such as Auto Trans R Us for an inspection and quote.
