Thread: 2000 Ody Transmission Rebuild?

The price sounds good. What is the warranty? Have you discussed the option of adding a Magnefine filter or cooler? This would be an ideal time to install them. Both would add maybe another $100.

THAT IS provided the van is WORTH spending $2,000 on - #1: IS IT? There's 5 remanufactured on ebay (Item 390086624930 no affiliation OR endorsement...) right now for $1055 (+$300 core charge). +120 for convertor +150 shipping +150? for shipping the core back (might be cheaper) + 300?? for install (at least 300) = $1770 (assuming the core is good, I'm not sure what scams can be pulled with THAT..!!) + ??? for the handling and hassles...

Did you ask America Honda or a Honda dealer what Honda could do for you at 162K? If you had a 2002-2004 Odyssey I would say forget it but the 1999-2001 did have an Extended Warranty to 109,000 miles. Maybe they may prorate it from that mileage limit for you? You never know if you don't ask. Although you're quote of $1,987 is good.

Thanks guys. I believe the vehicle is worth fixing, besides I have family who is willing to buy the vehicle off me in a few months (I plan to purchase a Honda Pilot by then). I have already agreed to have the work done, but I will ask about the cooler. The warranty is 12k / 12 months. Does anyone know if Honda will reimburse owners for work on their faulty transmissions? I read on this site a while back a woman who went to Honda Corp and only...

The chances of Honda doing anything (unless purchased from them) are slim to non-existent. As I have posted elsewhere, I was just out of time limit, always took it to dealer for service, and the best they would do would've left me $2000 out of pocket. Have the independent do it.
