I just got off the phone (keeled over is more appropriate) with a technician at Level 10 Transmissions in N.J. I called to ask what their valve body recal would cost for the Maxima. They told me that normally they have you ship your VB to them, they mod it and you install it back yourself.... EXCEPT for the Jap cars. For the Japs you have to go to Level 10 and have them do the work. Fine, but when I asked how much for L10 to do the job the guy told me....

$698 for the parts and
$500 for labor!!!

I had him double and triple check that he wasn't quoting me a price for an entire tranny rebuild and he wasn't. Am I crazy or does this sound a bit insane?! Has anyone had the Level 10 valve body recal, and is it different from Don's?

You can get a Protorque TC for $395 and Don's VB for $450. However the labor for installing the TC is around $350-600 anyway so there is no way around it.

 

When i called them up about a month ago i was quoted about 7 bills for parts and labor. Thats funny why that told you that much, maybe b/c im in NJ??

 

don is having a deal right now for real cheap. i think it ends on the 15th. he tells me it's not too hard to do. so i'll remove and replace it myself but then again i'm no ameture.

 

What kinda deal is he having on the Valve body? How much?

 

ask don.

 

Don's vb recal is $400-$450. Not sure what the deal is, but that's around the normal price.

 

You got to speak to (Pat) I think he is the owner.

 

So, when you do VB recal. mod..you take out the factory one and ship it to Don..and he will ship you back the Recalibrated one..rite???

How does entire process go???
and how much is the shop usually charge for taking out and putting back in the VB????

And the Tranny cooler installed???how much is that??

So, what is the total cost for VB mod and tranny cooler installed ???

Thankx
