I am currently shopping for a fair price to perform a soft rebuild on my 2003 W203 722.6 transmission. This will also include replacing the torque converter. The soft rebuild includes the following parts;
1. Metal clad front and rear seals
2. Hi-temperature rubber 0-rings and seals
3. Rubber drum seals or bonded rubber clutch pistons
3. Bushings and bearings
4. Clutch plates
5. Bands
6. Modulators
7. Filter/s
8. Upgrade kit
9. Automatic transmission fluid-ATF
Based on pricing so far it looks like its going to be near $2200. That figure also incudes a 3-year 36K warranty. Does this seem like a reasonable estimate? In case youre wondering the clutches for 3rd gear are slipping. Im getting a RPM flare at that shift point. We tried changing the spring but the problem is still there. The previous owner drove it for many miles with a broken 2-3-shift spring. The car has 161K and looks and runs excellent. Its my daughters car and I want it to be right.
Any thoughts will be appreciated.
