The same thing happend to me when I had my 2k maxima. It took them about a week to finish up installing the new tranny. hopefully It wont take 2 weeks for them to get it done.

first, they have to locate an auto tranny from another maxima and they called that tranny a "re-manufactured" tranny. can take 2 days can take 20 days, depends.

second, to remove and reinsatll the tranny, labor is about 18 hours.

I thought they fixed the MAF and everything was fine....

to remove a tranny and put it back in isn't that hard.. only hard part would if they hafta re do the wires, which they definatley do not need to do. it's like a clutch job, ppl have done them within an hour. so i say if they really worked on ur car, it'll take a day. nissan tends to say "re-manufactured" because that means the part was not originally on your car.. alot of the so called "re-manufactured" parts are brand new parts.. they for some weird reason just arne't alowed to use the term "brand new parts" weird but i guess it serves them a legal purpose.. now refurbished is definately a part that was used but restored.

The number of Nissan/Maxima tranny's I see blowing up on this forum is nothing compared to the number of Honda/Cracura tranny's I see blowing up. The Honda auto tranny's are definitely more fragile. In comparison, Nissan tranny's seem much tougher.

Agreed.. Take a look at the Acura TL groups and you'll see that everyone is complaining about their dead tranny's and stolen HID's
