Finding the Best Deal on Remanufactured Manual Transmissions

Finding the Best Deal on Remanufactured Manual Transmissions

by Trans Works / Wednesday, 11 June 2014 / Published in Transmission

Over the course of your vehicle’s life, your transmission should be one of the longest lasting parts. The reason for this is that transmissions are very expensive to replace or repair, so you should get a fair number of miles out of them. When something goes wrong with your transmission, however, it is a good idea to look at remanufactured manual transmissions, since they allow you to save money in comparison to purchasing a brand new one. At the same time, however, you will want to research the company that you are buying from, as this gives you the best chance of getting the most for your money.

Deal with Ethical Shops

The first thing to remember when shopping for remanufactured manual transmissions is that not all shops are the same. Some shops with mark the product up considerably, even when they did minimal work on the transmission in the first place. Other shops will not test the transmission before attempting to sell it, which puts all of the risk on your shoulders. Ask the shop if the transmission has been tested and how it was repaired before making a purchase, as this will tell you a lot about the company. You should also read some online reviews to see how others have liked their experienced with that particular shop.

Qualified Mechanics

Another thing to consider is the experience level and certifications of the mechanics who remanufactured the transmission. These qualifications should be displayed within the shop and if they are not, you should be able to ask about them. Many transmission shops are affiliated with professional organizations like the ATRA and ASE, which will put your mind at ease when making this purchase.

Turnaround Time

Although you probably want your vehicle back on the road as quickly as possible, do not let this be the sole determining factor when choosing a transmission specialist. Getting the job done right might take some time, but it is well worth it if you get additional years out of your car and do not have to be concerned about your transmission breaking down again in the near future. Of course, if you can find a reputable shop that will install your transmission within a day or two, jump all over the opportunity.
