Anybody dealt with Phoenix Transmissions? They sell reman 6thGen AT's for $1,000/shipped with a 12/12K warranty on ebay. Sounds too good to be true.

that may be my next move

Man, somehow check them out before you go with them. I see that if they send you a bad trans you get to pay shipping both ways and you get to pay the shop's install labor AGAIN. That $1K reman trans could quickly turn into a >$2,000 job.

$1900? I swear I've read these guys talking about $3k+ on rebuilt transmissions.

My '99 AV6 coupe is at 116k miles, tranny still feels strong to me. :)

edit: oops this is raymond on LeeAnn's screenname LOL
