Actually... ANOTHER new tranny... well.. the one they replaced mine with was rebuilt... so I'd assume they use rebuilt trannys in most of the repairs.

I do too.

It might be worth your while to just send your car to Level 10, YJ.

Is it just me or do rebuilt Nissan trannies NEVER hold up?

I would demand a brand spankin' new tranny or a new car.

I would say "since it's obvious that you guys can't see to rebild your own transmissions, put a new one in there".

Here's the deal.
I'm getting another new TCM another new shift solenoid, and they are giving me a "new" tranny.
They have no clue what the problem is.
that's another 3 days in the shop...
Looks like i will be driving the a6 this week
at least that thing is a 6 speed
