Subject:      Auto tranny rebuild
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"


Folks,
You may or may not have seen either of my queries about auto tranny issues.


Anyway, how bad are these auto trannies to rebuild?  I'm pretty good, mechanically, but I know nothing about these slush-box transmissions.  Do I have any chance at all to take this thing out, rebuild it, put it back in and have it work?  I have the Haynes, and the Bentley.


My favorite local VW shop is quoting me big $$$ for the rebuild.  I understand the $$$, it seems like a tedious job that could take a long time...time is $$$.


Thanks for any input.
