Default Re: DIY Transmission leak fix with photos... TA DAAaa

He explained to the foolish woman that the plate under the transmission box needs to be replaced because the leak goes through it to the rings. He said he won't charge me for labor, but the part is expensive. He ordered the part Friday and I am supposed to go in Monday morning to have the work done.

Please advise me - is this a possibility or do I really only need a $9 O-ring replaced?

We do not know really what your problem is, but most problems of this sort are fixable with the $20 part and a little labor $.
Changing the item this fits inside the transmission would be way over the top.
My guess is that you are being taken for a sucker or they do not know what they are doing or likely both.
