How much does it cost to get a new transmission in a 2001Toyota solara

The Solara was equipped with either a 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder engine and both manual and automatic transmissions were used. If you have the 6 cylinder with an automatic transmission the transmission itself (re-manufactured, off the shelf) is "roughly" $2,500. It might take roughly 8-10 hours to remove and replace it. However, there are many details that affect the cost such as whether you want a Toyota re-manufactured transmission (cost will be higher, but such a transmission will be higher quality) and the condition of interrelated parts on the vehicle such as the transmission mounts, external tubing to the radiator for cooling and so forth. In other words, the vehicle has to be inspected, and your preferences determined, before you can really understand the economics of the repair. If you are interested in a transmission replacement, YourMechanic professionals in certain locales can assist with that. Please simply inquire based on your locale. If you have further questions or concerns, do not hesitate to re-contact YourMechanic.
