Um.... $3500 for a rebuild? Considering G-Box rebuilds are typically around $2k, unless you have serious stuff damaged in there, $3500 seems extremely high.

Also, for what it's worth, while these gearboxes don't contain rocket science, it's certainly outside the norm of what most generic transmission shops tend to work on (domestic auto gearboxes typically).

If you're pulling the gearbox for a rebuild, and your warranty will cover $2500, I would send it to G-Box rather than pay more out of pocket to have someone who is likely not all that familiar with a manual transaxle do the work.

Just my $.02
