I had a 93 Lebaron cvt. 3.0, though can't remember which trans....anyway I bought the car with 42K on it, drove it without problem to 120K (perhaps the trans was a little 'soft' shifting) I then had the fluid and filter changed....It was NOTICEABLY slipping, I was concerned whether I'd make it home (changed with mopar atf). Next day drove to trans shop...$1600 and drove fine till I sold it with 270K. So just be where, do you have an emergency fund?



Key there is that you did your first trans fluid change at 120K. After 80K to 100K on the fluid don't touch it.

Now, ph23vo changes his fluid real agressive schedule (I assume he does it himself). And he got 250K miles out of his trans. A lot more than the 150K and counting you got out of your second/rebuilt trans.
