Boss,

Try mo sa Carbucks banawe malapit sa MAX, had the same problem with my honda last year. bale lahat around 19 k lang ang singil sakin. 3 days ginawa tapos 2 months warranty pa. Try mo mag ask sa kanila boss kasi baka nag bago na presyo ngayon. Nagtanong din kasi ako kung sansaan dati ang mamahal ng quote eh. Sila na yung pinakamura at so far hindi naman ako ulit nag ka problema

Where did you get your surplus tranny and how much is it? How much is the labor as well?

Thanks in advance.

I had the shop (doing the actual job) do the sourcing of the tranny so if any problems occur, the shop will handle the transaction. The shop was SPEEDLAB.

P12K for the tranny. But I can't remember how much the labor costed.

kuan gako surplus na lang... mas maganda pagawa mo kay speedlab or speedyfix... kasi may kilala silang mga surplus shop and thay know what to check when buying surplus tranny... Don't go directly sa mga surplus shop baka kasi bugbog na din yung ikabit sayo...

repair medjo mahirap and mas malake ang risk... nakita mo naman sa picture kung gano karaming parts ang a/t tranny

parehong pareho po tayo ng problema..though di pa napapacheck ng dad ko yung amin.. 96 lxi a/t rin po.. it skips 3rd gear when in D4.. i'll be reading na lang po through this thread and will post some questions sa mga susunod na araw

ang tanging sabi lang sakin ng dad ko, puro D4 palagi gamit noong huling may ari (babae) kakilala kasi niya..now i use D3 pag city driving, at pag bumilis na ng konti, let's say mga 50km/h and on the nlex, D4..

here's my opinion on this...

-A/T transmission on hondas are tightly sealed. based ito sa mga nababasa ko sa mga threads and google. slight wrong configuration / alteration ng parts can affect a lot sa performance
-kung mag papa rebuild ka, you must be 100% sure na magaling yung gagawa and they had done it several times already
-another thing you should consider is japan surplus parts are great replacement specially dito sa pinas. why? 5 years lang max age ng mga koche dun, i think this will answer the quality of the product. double check mo na lang din, bunot mo disptick then amuyin mo yung liquid sa loob. it should smell sweet and or sour not burnt. if its burnt wag na yun...
-price: surplus 15k all in VS 40k rebuild.... layo ng difference dba
-mas sure ka sa replacement since nde pa nabubuksan yung tranny, 15 days is long enough para malamang mo kung palyado yung tranny na nabili mo.
