best place to sale, transmission shot





Hi,


So after lots of testing and looking, my transmission is shot and it is going to be roughly $4k to have it rebuilt right. I have 234k miles on my 99 ML430 and I am not going to sink that much into it. Everything else is perfect, and it has been well maintained, but still, at that mileage, I feel like I have gotten my money's worth out of it. Now, I am in Raleigh and wondering where I could get the best price for it? I have pics.


Thx in advance.

It's time to look at recycling yards in your area. Fill in all the blanks and you ZIP code and you will get a list of every one that has a trans. in your area.

Thx, I had started looking already, nothing very close by, but not too far. I think this is the route I am going to take. I really can't see scrapping it after thinking a little while.
