Got the new tranny today, had it delivered to our shop. It's not what I was wanting but it was my only choice. It has 120,000 on it and it came out of a Buick Regal. Had my mechanic look it over and said it looked pretty fresh, had fresh seals on it so maybe it's been rebuilt before.. Here are some pics.

 

I had my fluid and filter changed once a year.....around 110,000 it started to be a bit sluggish between shifts.....Knowing full well im going to keep it til the wheels fall off.
I had the trans rebuilt with a complete "hot" flush of all the lines and tanks,torque converter...had the comp upgraded... all for a cost of $1000.00 with a warranty of 3 yr 36,000 miles... I am very satisfied with the work....and the shifts are very chrisp..

wouldnt you know it? The car even runs a bit cooler now as well..Go Figure!

 

Glad to see you're on your way to fixing it I didn't wanna be the only one on here with a GP lol

 

Ah no I'm not giving up that easily! I love this car, the attachment that I've grown on it has grown faster than it ever did with the Mustang!

 

this sucks man. hope you get it all fixed up

 

Is there a NON-HD version of the 4T65E? Or is it just the 4T60E and the 4T65E HD?

 

I hope everything works out with the new trany.

 

The tranny went in my 01 monte SS it was the planetary gear had it rebuilt for $1265 by a guy that specialized in gm trannies . Do not go to a junkie have it rebuilt by somebody that knows what they are doing do it once and do it right

 

I bought it from a trusted salvage yard my boss and master mechanic recommended...

 

Glad to hear it, I love my GP too, grew on me pretty quick just like My Grand Am GT did when I had it
