The small shop was reccomended to me by a good friend that has been there for service. He has a camero though. Im going to give these guys a shot. If it doesnt work Ill have to shell out the money to the dealership. Money is a huge factor right now so I gotta go with what i can afford right now...

Today went by a small transmission and clutch shop, said they will just charge labor if i brought my own parts and fluid. $180 total to change out solenoid and replace fluid and filter.
