Hey guys. My daughter's cream 1979 242DL Lambda Sond automatic transmission will no longer settle into drive gear. Kickdown not the problem. It needs another AW55 tranny from a junkyard. Is a volvo mechanic required for this or can I fairly easily drop out the old one and put the new one in place? What is the usual price for this? I would really like to do it if its not too much. What gaskets do I need to put the "new" in if I do it? Are there good instructions anywhere on line or one of the manuals? A new rebuild job is $1100. Too much.
