hey guys- unfortunately i can't afford a lentech just yet
so i'm going to have a local shop rebuild her for now. since i'm kind of a newbie when it comes to transmissions, what should i look out for so i dont get bent over? i know to ask about warranty, which parts they use, etc. but i just want to make sure they will diagnose whats wrong with the trans w/out running up a huge tab in the process. meaning if my trans just needs a standard rebuild, or if i will need new sensors as well, etc.
on a sidenote, what happened to my trans------->
i changed the filter/fluid due to the fact that my trans was slipping badly. when i dropped the pan there we some rather large(1" long) chunks of metal in there as well as the fact there was a total of about 3 qts of trans fluid in there we put a new filter in and also 5qts of fluid,then drove the car around town driving it easily. then filled it up with another qt and took it out on the highway. i drove it easy for a couple of miles, then started some midly-hard accelerating. the first time the car shifted fine, the second time it wouldn't shift into second. we let the car sit and tried at it again, but to no avail it would not shift into second.
thanks for any help.
