Around here, we get one year and/or 12,000 miles warranty on a rebuilt trans. You can buy an extended warranty, but by the time you get much past the 2 years and 24,000 miles, you might as well just take your chances, the warranty is nearly as expensive as a rebuild.
Almost no one is rebuilding transmissions around here, everyone is installing one of the reman company units. You get the warranty from the reman company, and the local guys still charge you R & R on a warrantied trans..
All true.. Rebuilding has become less than cost effective for most modern transmissions.
I rebuilt a GM 4T65E a few years back. By the time I replaced all the defective parts I was $200 past the cost of a rebuilt unit.
I was asked to rebuild a Ford RWD transmission and the basic kit was over $1200. That was just the kit. No parts like solenoids or TQ. It wasn't worth it.
Old school can still be done cheap but modern stuff is not cost effective.
