for the people that have had their trannies replaced... how long was your car at the dealer getting the new tranny swapped? can it be done in a day? this is my daily driver and i doubt they'll give me a loaner i'm getting the 3rd gear grind when driving hard

 

It takes us 3 hours to drop the tranny / put in new flywheel and clutch / re install tranny (or new tranny)...
we have done alot

 

Mossy Nissan here in San Diego took two days for me. It really depends on the workload of the dealership you take it to. Warranty work is last on the list since the techs bill Nissan at a flat rate, which is usually lower than customer work.

 

One day...

 

Mine was done in 4 hours. 6000+miles on it now shifting great.

 

Z's get priority at www.perfnissan.com

 

4 hours....

 

is the tranny issue for 04's, i have had some grinding when i put it into sixth, should i go bring it to them and see what they say?

 

What are the symptoms again? I've got a 1st to 2nd grinding issue and a low frequecy vibration upon deceleration. Any ideas? Jason..you out there?

 

the low frequency vibration I wouldnt worry about. As I have that too.

If you are grinding in between gear changes (especially when tranny is cold) then you need a new tranny. Eventually it will get worst and do it all the time.

 

mine took one week. 4 days to get the tranny shipped, about 4 hrs to install

 

yikes. The proper way is to give the car back to the customer and call them when the tranny comes in. I wouldnt want my z at the dealership for a week.

 

i count my miles, only 4 more when i got it back and i got a rental car btw

oh and they installed my jwt clutch/flywheel while it was out. i think i got a good deal out of it

 

durobred,

What year is your car?

Dissolved,

Where do you live? I am looking for a person locally to drive my car to determine if I have a tranny problem. Somebody that has a tranny replaced!

Here is the link to the post about my tranny:

I live in the pasadena area.


Thanks,

Dropped it off in the morning before work, picked it up after work.. No tranny problems in 14k miles

 

I'm in delaware man. If you want to drive to the other side of the country so I can drive your car, I'll buy you a beer

 

mine took 6 hours. i had already told them they had the car overnight if needed...and they still did it in 6 hours. not bad.

 

I think it pays eight hours. It should easily be done in four hours from start to finish if the tech is any good.

 

4 days to replace mine. They did the alignment while it was in the shop. Although I could have kept the car untill the ranny arrived, it was just easier to leave it at the dealer from when i first brought it in, for the grinding.

 

2 fuçking weeks. and they had my car the whole time.

"oh we're waiting on hte parts."
"oh it'll be tomorrow"
"did we say tuesday? we really meant wednesday"
"sorry, it's still not here"


screw south point nissan!!!

and when they changed it, they dinged my door and chipped my paint. that was a whole different battle to get that fixed.
