Damn, I still think you've got one of the slickest first gens out there! Hope the new tranny gets everything running smoothly again (im sure it will).
You could swap the solenoid, filter and servos yourself for around $600. I doubt it's a fun project though.
The solenoid pack is relatively easy to replace once the pan is off, the valve body stays in place and the gasket is reusable. I haven't gotten to the servos yet so I'll let you know today when I finish my teardown.You could swap the solenoid, filter and servos yourself for around $600. I doubt it's a fun project though.
