    Default Rebuilt Automatic Transmission

    Can anyone advise of a source for a quality rebuilt auto trans other than a BMW rebuilt unit which is quite pricey?

    Thank you

    As it turns out I actually live in Holland, Michigan where Auto Sports Unlimited is located. I was not aware that they were a certified ZF rebuilder. That should make the decision easier.

    Heard some horror stories about these guys. Bottom line from Kirk Koeller was for non ZF buy a factory rebuilt. I didn't listen, got a local ACREA certified builder to do mine, and after having it pulled and redone by them 5 times, gave up and bought a factory rebuilt. Guess what, finally works right.

    man that sux, you pays your monies and you takes your choices. Personally I would spend the extra to get one from Kirts joint cause thats ALL they work on. There is low negitive feedback about that link but looking through them there is a bunch of retracted negetives. Who wants to pay to do this twice or even do this a few times? Count me out!

    Default i got a 5hp30 a month ago from kirt............

    so far so good. runs good, shifts smooth. i really need to get a new throttle position switch & dinan tranny chip though. kirt is hard to get on the phone, but he is very knowledgable with these tranny's.
    after all my research i feel i made the best decision.

    Default if you live in Holland

    check with the guys from the German board www.e34.de.
    They might be able to help you with some addresses.

    Default The transmission from HELL!!!

    Stay away from phoenix-remanufactured-transmissions. They are stupid, dumb and plain rude. They sent me a transmission from hell...then ended up having to rebuild my original transmission because they had no other replacements...Their mistake and f**k up cost me about $500 in additional cost and time
