Kia Sportage Replacement Transmission for Sale

Kia Sportage Transmissions for Sale

Kia Sportage Transmissions for Sale


The Kia Sportage is manufactured by the Korean Auto maker Kia Motors, introduced in 1993 to the US. The Sportage is an inexpensive mini-SUV compact crossover. Starting out it was a humble little car designed for fuel economy more than anything. Kia Sportage replacement transmissions for sale are priced at low everyday, no gimmicks.

Being a front wheel drive car all Sportages use a similar drive-line arrangement. Even the newest generation uses a modern version of the original setup. We call this arrangement a Transverse mounting system..

The premise of this particular mounting system is that the transmission and engine are bolted together and mounted sideways under the hood of the car. We call this an east to west mounting of the engine/transmission combo, in relation to the north to south axis of the car.

All of the Sportages were offered with a four wheel drive option. Which used a transfer case to distribute the power to the rear wheels also. Some people might know the term All Wheel Drive [AWD], a common term. Either way, the Sportage was not made for rugged off-roading, the AWD package was for snowy winter weather, where more traction means more safety.

Kia has offered both manual and automatic transmissions in the Sportage. Essentially they are what is termed a conventional transaxle assembly. What this means is that the transmissions components and differential components are located in the same case, so these two components can be in the same place under the hood, thus saving space and weight.

With that in mind, Kia offered 4, 5 and 6 speed automatic transmissions/transaxles and 4,5, and 6 speed manual transaxles for the Sportage. Sticking with a proven design has kept the repair costs down. Especially using a similar system for so long.

Kia has proven that they can design a reliable front wheel drive transmission through the test of time. Very few surpises wait for owners of said cars.

In the event of a transmission failure, especially in early Sportage models, we always recommend a rebuilt transmission. This simply a matter of cost to value. For the low cost of a remanufactured transmission, it’s hard to turn down when you consider our peace of mind warranty.

Every rebuilt transmission comes with pure value built into it. If you think a low mileage used transmission may be better suited for your budget, call GotTransmissions.com right now and speak to a customer service rep who has the time and experience to guide you in the right direction.

The first automatic transmissions, or transaxles as we call them were straight up 3 speed automatic transmissions, some had a lock up torque converters for more fuel economy. Commonly called the ”K” car by mechanics. The A413, A470, A670 are all from the same family of transaxles.

In late ’89, a new design, 4 speed automatic transaxle was introduced, a very advanced fully computerized unit for it’s time, and still in production in more reliable and modern forms, than the original TF A604.

In the 20 plus years Chrysler has manufactured this particular design, it has literally perfected the design, making it one of the best working transmissions made today. Practice makes perfect.

The name of the newest transmission may have changed to 41TE, yet the basic design is still in tack, with more strength and nearly seamless, smooth shifts. Also makes use of a lock up torque converter, for added fuel mileage and engine life.

There is only one more generation of said car, made from 2001 to 2010. Switching to one V8 engine only, two automatic transmission were offered. One was offered from 2002 to 2005, a 5 speed automatic overdrive transmission, and an update was made in 2006 to a 6 speed automatic overdrive transmission, all come with a lock up torque converter.

The six speed model used in this car is called an A761E, all transmission with the ”A” letter in front are made by Aisn-Warner.

Using input sensors mounted in critical areas on the chassis and engine, real time signals are transferred to the computer to command the transmission to give the most efficient shift for the immediate driving conditions.

The SC is a rear wheel drive setup, as I mentioned earlier. Conventional it is not, but that is not important. The basic design is conventional in theory. The engine is mounted up front and the rear differential is in the back, a driveshaft connects them. That is where the difference between a conventional RWD and Lexus Rear wheel drive setup ends.

Kia Optima Transmissions for Sale, very affodable


Kia builds some of the best inexpensive cars available. One of the very successful models is the Optima, introduced in 2000, and still being made. A mildly strange history, because the first generation were only renamed Hyundai Sonata’s. Depending on the year of your Optima, we offer every variation of Kia Optima Transmissions for sale, at a realistic price. 866-320-1182.

The first generation is called model MS, and was made from 2000 to 2005. All Optima’s are front wheel drive cars, being built on a front wheel drive chassis. The term used to describe this setup is transverse. What that means is the engine/transmission combo is mounted sideways under the hood of the car. The most popular method of producing a front wheel drive car.

The only transmissions offered were a 4 speed automatic transmission with a lock up torque converter, and a 5 speed manual shift transmission. Both transmissions are conventional in design, meaning they are both transaxles, where the transmission and differential are in the same case. A convenient way to manufacture a front wheel drive transmission.

The second generation was made from 2005 to 2010, called model MG. The only drive line change was updating the 4 speed automatic transmission to a 5 speed transmission with lock up. Let me explain lock up. Most people don’t even know of the feature, yet all modern cars have it. It is the equivalent of a very subtle 6th forward gear, offering better fuel mileage.

The third generation Optima started production in 2010 and is still being made. Again, Kia upgraded from 5 forward speed automatic transmissions to a more modern 6 speed automatic, and upgraded the manual shift transmission to 6 speed as well.

Depending on which year you own, there may be more than one transmission option available for replacement, the only way to find out is to speak with someone who has good knowledge of the subject, and your best interest in mind.

Volkswagen Tiguan Transmissions for Sale


The VW Tiguan is one of the best looking, newer compact crossover vehicles [CUV], introduced by Volkswagen in 2008. It uses a front engine 4Motion four wheel drive system [all wheel drive] or you can buy a front wheel drive model only. Only three different transmissions are used in the Tiguan, interested in Volkswagen Tiguan Transmissions for Sale, call our specialists at 1-8977-268-0664 right now.

The three transmissions offered in the Volkswagen Tiguan:
1. A 6 speed manual transmission for front wheel drive only (FWD],
2. A 6 speed Tiptronic automatic transmission, FWD only
3. A 6 speed automatic Tiptronic control 4Motion with adaptive torque control.

The Tiptronic is owned By Porsche. Who licenses it’s use in certain Audi’s and Volkswagens too.

Many people use the term ‘tiptronic’ to refer generically to any type of torque converter automatic transmission that uses a manual upshift/downshift mode. Not the case here. A tiptronic transmission falls into the manumatic transmission description, for more info on manumatic transmission read this article.

A tiptronic transmission can operate in the same manner as an ordinary type of automatic transmission, but also offers the driver another method of manually shifting and thus overriding the automatic shift feature.

By moving the shift lever into a second operating position of the shift gate: “upshift” and “downshift”, the driver takes control over most of the gear shifting decisions manually, overriding automatic shifts, normally performed by the transmission’s intricate computerized system.

For example, this allows for delayed and manually controlled upshifts for increased acceleration, increased engine braking, holding it in gear for curves, downshifting before passing, or early up-shifting for regular cruising.

Although tiptronic transmissions allow the driver a certain measure of personalized control, the tiptronic design is incorporated by using an automatic transmission styled lock up torque converter like other conventional automatic transmissions.

Regardless of your reasons for being here, information, or actually looking for a replacement Tiguan transmission. GotTransmissions.com is the perfect transmission supplier to call and find out more about how to choose the right replacement transmission for your car.

Pure value is built into every transmission we sell. Speak with a specialist on transmissions and how to teach you how to buy a transmission that suits your needs and budget.

Nissan Versa Transmissions for Sale

The Nissan Versa is a compact car marketed in the United states and Canada. In production since 2004, and currently being made. It is a compact car which comes as a 4 door coupe or 5 door hatch back. Only three transmissions are offered, each one matched to a specific engine. Available Nissan Xtronic CVT [Continuously Variable Transmission], a 4-speed electronically controlled automatic with overdrive, and a Manual 6-speed transmission. For more information read on, for Nissan Versa transmissions for sale, call 866-320-1182.

The Versa is a front wheel drive car. it uses a transverse mounting system, where the engine and transmission are bolted together and fit sideways under the hood. An axle comes from each side of the transmission to drive the left front wheel and right front wheel. The most popular and successful setup on the road day.

A continuously variable transmission [CVT] has many attractive features, including improving fuel economy, providing seamless smooth shifts, delivering continuous engine power and more enjoyable driving performance. Nissan developed and applied new design steel belts to their CVT units, and another new feature called XTRONIC to their CVT’s.

The 4 speed automatic over drive transmission is more accurately called a transaxle because the transmission and differential assembly are all in the same housing, or case. All modern automatic transmissions use a feature called lock up. The feature is the addition of a clutch plate in the torque converter. When it is applied, it gives the same effect as another forward speed would have, more fuel mileage and less engine wear.

These are high tech electronically controlled transmissions which use a fully computerized system with input sensors and output sensors delivering real time signals to the brain [valve body], thus causing the car to shift perfectly every time.

The standard shift transmissions are not as popular, yet remains an option for those who enjoy a manual shift transmission. It also is a transaxle, and mounted transversely under the hood.

The electric version of the Versa is called the Leaf, it is a fully electronic car with no gasoline or fossil fuel engine at all. A plug in car is the most common term.

If you need to replace tour Versa transmission, make it a point to call GotTransmissions.com and discuss your need with a competent professional.

Infiniti M35X Transmissions for Sale

The M35X Infiniti is a full sized luxury car. Made between 2005 and 1010. The name identifies which power-plant it has. Making use of a 7 forward speed automatic transmission. The only transmission offered in the M35X. If you are on the hunt for one of said transmissions, GotTransmissions.com has rebuilt and low mileage used Infiniti M35X transmissions for sale. I want to mention and discuss the CLKUP feature.

CLKUP is an acronym for “Computer-Controlled Continuously Variable Lockup.” It’s important to note that this is not referring to a CVT transmission, but rather a continuously variable lockup torque converter of which every automatic transmission has. The two items are totally different. In fact, 99% of the cars on the road in the last 15 years have some form of a lock up torque converter. Infiniti has designed an excellent working system that is so smooth, most people are not aware of it, but it saves gas and engine wear.

Infiniti calls it an” Adaptive Shifting Transmission”. Before I go any further on this matter, let me mention the M35X is a front engine rear wheel drive car. There is nothing conventional about it. The engine and transmission are located further back than most cars, not actually a ”mid-ship engine”, it does sit closer to the center of the car, therefore allowing for almost perfect weight distribution for greater handling and stopping ability. 50/50 weight distribution was the goal.

Adaptive shifting is Infifni’s trade-name for their version of an automatic overdrive transmission controlled by a complicated computer system. Making use of sensors mounted on the chassis, engine and transmission. Then the brain of the transmission [valve body] receives real time input signals, thus allowing the car to instantly adapt to any driving condition or driving habit put to it.

It’s not very common, but M35X transmissions have failures. Which leads me to the frustration and trouble most folks have deciding how to replace their transmission for an affordable price, with out sacrificing reliability.

I am not in a position to recommend anything to you, but if you call GotTransmissions.com and speak with a representative, all of the proper questions will be asked of you, and then we will teach you how to choose a transmission that suits your budget and needs. Making a great decision is a great feeling.
