[QUOTE="mizuan, post: 169226, member: 1949"] opp, sorry for the late reply. Its done now. Took about a week coz my mechanic kena dengue fever. No one else knows how to do it except him. Complete overhaul of the gear box cost me RM4,300 with a year's warranty. Should be cheaper but the mechanic says that the full reconditioning of the torque converter and changing one of the 3 ring band (dunno if that is the right name)..where both alone cost me about RM1k. The place is at Jalan Genting Kelang. I suggest you ask the sifus around if there's a cheaper and better place. But I believe its better that you took the complete overhaul route instead of changing the entire gear box with a recon unit since you can be sure that the internal parts i.e. clutch plate, gaskets etc. are replaced with brand new ones. I guess that is why those shops that replaces your gear box with a recon unit can only give max 1 month warranty. The inside parts may not last long enough since they're also second hand parts. My 2 sen. [/QUOTE]
