Transmission Issues

I just took my car in to get the tranny flushed and the oil changed. My transmission had been making quite a bit of noise under load. I was hoping the flush would work, but it didnt. The place said my bearings were going out and thats what was making the humming noise.

How much for new bearings and labor?

Thanks.

I have recently serviced my tranny and apparently after talking to one of the transmission experts learned that flushing auto tranny is a very bad idea, it flushes out the clutches and causes malfunction. This may lead to tranny rebuids which is $$$, so don't flush your tranny cuz our trannies are not designed for the pressure the flushes operates at.

Transmission experts also say automatic Nissan trannys suck!

Dont worry, Ive got a manual.

i have an automatic transmission and if it does problem with the transmission then i should change the transmission oil and all the stuff flush out and stuff right but before that it might even make the transmission worse?? Maxima Rocks ...
