I'm currently driving a 2000 Buick regal GS and the trans went out. I had 3 2 1 and reverse but now I just have reverse only I'm clueless if I need a whole trans or what. Any help will be appreciated and I'm pretty hands on so I'm not totally helpless I just need a better understanding
 


Fluid level and condition? CHeck it with the car hot, running, and on a level surface. Maybe drop the pan to look for metal in it?

Or just give Triple Edge a call!
 


Im so hurt right now I'm lost for words but you all r the best and i appreciate all of ur input is it a difficult process to rebuild.
 
have you ever rebuilt a transmission? if yes, have you ever built a fwd? if yes, you shouldn't be on GPF.

if no, take it to a reputable shop. if you were in michigan, this would be the point where i segue to convincing you to come to the tranny shop i work.

What exactly makes your shop better than lets say getting one from TEP???

when did i make that claim?

although, the shop owner/builder does have 40 years experience in building. he'll tear down and build a honda AXAN in 5 hours. i only said something because i enjoy pulling 4t65e's. they're cake.
 
Just because he can build a Honda transmission or whatever an "axan" is, doesn't mean you can build a 4t65e.

I hear this more and more now a days, ppl think just because someone can do something on one make/model, they can do it to them all.

Different model trannys utilize different power levels.. Some can handle a certain amount over others, some are more temperamental and need a certain aspect of rebuilding taken into consideration.

I can rotate my tires on my gtp I'll bet i can do it on any make and model :D



Don't mind me i'm just trolling
 


question can I put a transmission from another regal or w-body car if so what mode do I need to do in order to replace mines since paying for a rebuild is practically impossible right now I need input bad peeps and info would be of the greatest appreciation
 
So basically there wouldn't be a gear ratio issue or torque converter problems sorry for askin so many dumb question thanx n advance Mr. Bill
 
So long as you get it from a sc'd gm car from 97-02 everything will work fine except maybe having to change the hose connections at the trans.
