Transmission repair cost varies form vehicle to vehicle and also how severely damaged is the actual transmission. The damage could be small and it only needs a simple rebuild kit to fix it or it could be that you have a hole in a transmission and it could not be repaired, the only option is to replace transmission.
That is why it is impossible for any transmission repair shop in San Diego to give accurate repair estimate over the phone, when you have not even seen the car.

Same transmission could be used in multiple models, but the price of repair will be different. As an example let's take transmission model 4L30E. There are two versions of this tranny (American and Japanese). It is used in Isuzu Trooper, Cadillac Catera and in some BMW models and others. The cost of parts will be the same, but labor cost will vary, because it takes much longer to remove and reinstall the same transmission on BMW models, than it takes for Chevy S10 pickup.

Transmission rebuilding cost also depends on prices of parts. For some cars parts are only available at the dealership (dealer item only) and not only they cost more, but are being sold in a set and not separate parts that you need. If parts are in demand or if they are European parts they tend to be more expensive. You could pay one price for one pressure solenoid for domestic transmission but it will cost three times more for the same part for foreign car.

Rebuilding process and labor also is a factor in pricing. Some transmissions have more little inside parts than others, that means there are more parts that could fail and more parts that need to be inspected, cleaned and reassembled in correct order.

Cost of the transmission fluid depends on manufacturers recommendation and the size of the transmission and torque converter. Smaller transmission take 9qt to fill up, bigger models might need up to 16qt of ATF. Some models require to use fluid specifically designed for that transmission. Dextron III/IV, ATF-4, ZF these are different types of transmission fluid. There are transmission models that take gear oil to differential part of the transmission and transmission fluid to the gear and clutch part.



Adding all this together makes up the total cost of transmission rebuilding.
