Ok...
What exactly is a tranny rebuild? Let's say that I have the classic governor issue and the tranny freewheels between 1st and 2nd gear on a A4LD.
If I let authorized Ford guys repair it they will probably do the same thing as I would, clean the governor. Probably they also would say that they have rebuild the tranny. Also they probably want to get paid as it would be a total recover.
If I would do the same thing I would call it "clean the governor"...
Is a total teardown and replace all gaskets, seals and gizmos inside only consider as a rebuild, where is the line drawn here?
The reason for asking is that many people says that the have left their trannys to the mechanics for a rebuild ones and also two times and still getting problems in the near future after the job done.
Has anybody done the rebuild more than once on the same tranny..?
Is there a checklist for a rebuild or so? Hope youre getting the Q picture here..
Regards.
