Longevity of auto trans 700

posted by  someone claiming to be stavros on  Tue Sep 10 01:45 CST 2002 [RELATED]

The transmissions are robust and last a long time. If the car sat in traffic, then 48k on the rear end is about 248k on the engine and tranny, but you can confirm this through other means (wear on the brake pedal cover, seats cracked, etc.)

Your best bet is a used tranny from a low-mileage wreck, or a rebuild at a local tranny shop in NZ. Parts and labor for a rebuild in the US would be about US$900.
