The difference between transmission repair and transmission rebuilding process.

When you have transmission problem, either it is automatic or manual transmission first thought that comes to your mind is “Where do I get it fixed and how much it is going to cost me?”
When you call to different repair places like general mechanic shops in San Diego or specialized transmission only places to find out about the price on repair, you are usually are offered to rebuild your transmission.

Then you wonder why can't they just fix it? Why the whole thing has to be rebuilt. In this case, unless you have a friend – transmission specialist, that can give you unaffiliated advice what to do, you just have only the choices that repair shops are offering to you. That is to go for a full transmission rebuild.

Is a complete and pricey tranny rebuild the only option for a used transmission to be working again?

In some cases transmission can be repaired and doesn't have to be completely overhauled. If you need a new torque converter or solenoid or a sensor that is located on the outside of transmission then you can avoid rebuilding. A well trained and experienced transmission specialist in San Diego could roughly diagnose the problem and at least give you an idea is it minor or major problem.
Calling over the phone and asking for a price on the transaxle repair San Diego, most of the time you will get an offer to rebuild your transmission, because the person on the other end of the phone have not even seen your car, how could he know what is wrong with your vehicle.

I have seen cases when customer would tow in the vehicle to my shop, because it would not move at all and we would only find a clogged oil filter creating starvation inside transmission pump and no pressure. After replacing the filter the car would drive perfect again. When a caller tells me over the phone that the car stopped moving, all I can tell that in worst case they will need rebuilding, but after good diagnosis it was only $250.00 repair.

The reasons for rebuilding.

When transmission is being worked on, the work is usually guaranteed by offering a warranty on the unit. Automatic transmissions are getting more and more complex. It takes only one small rubber seal ring to fail and the whole unit will not work properly and as it is being used it will affect other parts of the transmission and the damage will get worse. For a repair shop to offer warranty on the transmission they have to be sure it will not fail soon. This is the reason for the rebuilding transmission completely every time there is problem with it. For example if you have problem wit 2nd gear and transmission shop would only fix your 2nd gear problem, no warranty on any other symptoms only for the 2nd gear. 3 months later your 4th gear would start to act up you would have to spend the same amount of money to fix your current problem.
Because major part of transmission rebuilding price is cost of labor, it makes sense to rebuild it once that keep patching it again and again.
