So I got the transmission looked at again by a transmission shop that has been around for over 40 years and has good reviews today and they sure enough came back and said that the Solenoid Block needed replacing. They quoted me $585 for replacing with Ford/Motorcraft Solenoids. What do you guys think about that? Also they stated that the price includes transmission flush and fill as well and that as long as the transmission pan was clean that the price would remain as such. Of course I'm praying that there is no metal shavings in the pan or no sludge etc or any other unknown issues.
Would you guys go with the OEM block or prefer a Aftermarket brand, they told me it was up to me but that most always go with OEM...also while the pan is dropped is it best if the shift springs be replaced or should I take an "if ain't broke don't fix it"mentality? If not how much are those parts and is there any additional labor cost involved?
