Looking for ScionxB transmissions for Sale at Affordable Prices

One of the cute new pee-shooters introduced in 2004 is the Toyota ScionxB. I call it a pee shooter because it is a cute 5 door compact 5 door car which is very appealing to anyone who wants a little something different in a smaller vehicle. It’s simple, with only a 5 speed manual transmission option, or a 4 speed automatic overdrive [transaxle] transmission. Looking for ScionxB transmissions for Sale at Affordable Prices, call GotTransmissions.com now.

The 4 speed automatic overdrive transmission used from 2004 to 2006 is called the U340E. The U340E is a multiple clutch pack, fully hydraulic transmission. It is also a computer controlled transmission. Having a wide array of input sensors through out the chassis and engine, instant shifts can be made from real time inputs.

Using multiple compound planetary gear sets to produce 4 forward speeds. One of the features of this transmission is called a lock up torque converter. What this does is effectively produce another forward speed, making 5 total forward gears. Reducing engine wear and increasing fuel mileage.

Don’t forget that the Scion is front wheel drive car too. Which means the transmission is in the front of the car with the engine. It is mounted sideways, and an axle shaft comes out of each side of the transmission, to the appropriate front wheel to drive the car. An excellent and efficient setup.

Another item I wanted to note is the entire lineup of Toyota Scion’s:

• Scion xA 2003-2006
• Scion xB 2003-current
◦ Generation 1: 2003-2006
◦ Generation 2: 2007-current
• Scion tC 2004-current
◦ Generation 1: 2004-2010
◦ Generation 2: late 2010-
• Scion xD 2007-current
• Scion iQ early 2011-

From 2007 and on the automatic transmission used is a U241E. Which in essence is an updated U340E model. Designed to handle the extra power of the larger generation 11 engines.

The 5 speed standard transmission Toyota chose to use is a rather ordinary Toyota front wheel drive manual transaxle, which is also used in many other front wheel drive min or subcompact Toyota’s. It is conventional in all ways, nothing tricky about it. Just plain and reliable.

I recommend calling GotTransmissions.com and talking with a trained transmission specialist. One of our jobs is to educated every customer. We find that educated customers make better decisions, ones they are happy with, because they understand what they purchased and why.

Make sure you ask about every option available. We sell transmissions, low mileage used transmissions and JDM transmissions, which are for Japanese cars only, not all foreign cars. GotTransmissions.com is well known for outstanding customer service, call now and find out how easy and painless buying a transmission for your Scion can be.

Got Affordable Honda Insight Transmissions for Sale

The Honda Insight a sub-mini car or compact car, no matter what size you consider it, the Insight is a hybrid electric car. It was Honda’s first Integrated Motor Assist system. Certified by the EPA [environmental protection agency] to get 61 MPG [miles per gallon]. Most hybrids use a somewhat different transmission type than conventional cars, GotTransmissions.com has Got affordable Honda Insight transmissions for sale, crated and ready to ship right now.

What type of transmission comes in a hybrid? Where is the transmission and power source located on such a vehicle? No worries, let us explain it in terms you understand.

Because it is a front wheel drive car, the setup is much like any gasoline or diesel powered front wheel drive car. The engine/transmission mounting system is called transverse mounting. Without getting into the detailed specifics. The engine and transmission are mounted sideways, there is an axle shaft coming out of the right side of the transaxle going to the right front drive wheel, and the equivalent on the left side.

An ingenious setup, the transmission and differential are mounted in the same case. Thus, we call it a transaxle, to be exact. Another smart move was to make much of the body and chassis out of aluminum to reduce overall weight. Hybrid cars tend to be heavy with all of the battery’s.

Only three different performance packages are available: a 5 speed manual shift transmission in models without air-conditioning: a manual transmission with vehicles that use automatic climate-control system: and a continuously variable transmission [CVT], as the automatic transmission choice.

The first generation of Insight had a conventional manual shift transmission. Starting with the 2001 model, a CVT variation for the Honda Insight was available; the CVT is similar to that used in the Honda Civic Hybrid and the Honda Logo.

A CVT allows for an unlimited amount of gearing ratios between its lowest gear and its highest ratios. A feature shared by most hybrids is the ability to automatically shut down the internal combustion engine [Atkinson cycle} when the vehicle is at a stop [and automatically restart it upon movement request].

Buy your replacement transmission from a company who knows the specifics about hybrids before anyone else even thinks about it. We outperform the competition by becoming more knowledgeable about the product than anyone else. Our customers get world class service because we make a point out of getting the order right the first time, saving money and aggravation.

For solid trust able information and the best replacement transmissions available at any price, Call GotTransmissions.com. We sell peace of mind and pure value with every Honda Insight transmission for sale.

C70 Volvo Transmissions for Sale

Volvo C70 transmissions are built for performance. Volvo builds some mighty fast and stylish cars nowadays. The C70 is a perfect example. A full sized luxury car built on a front wheel drive platform. Both the first and second generation C70 came equipped with a manual transmission and several automatic transmissions to choose from. GotTransmissions.com has Volvo C70 transmissions for sale, rebuilt and low mileage used units. Call now for a free quote.

Volvo automatic transmissions in the past were all supplied and made by the ZF company, now the transmissions are developed by Volvo with Aisin W of Japan. FYI: Geartronic is Volvo Cars’ name for its manual/automatic, hence manumatic transmission.

The C70 is front wheel drive car, believe it or not. Some of the finest luxury performance sedans are on front wheel and or all wheel drive chassis. What this means is both the transmission and engine are mounted under the hood, and each front wheel has a short axle running from the transmission to transmit the power.

Similar in design and function to the Porsche Tiptronic. It is available in 5 and 6 forward speed models, and is controlled by a micro computer and a complicated array of input sensors. The microcomputer receives precise signals, then processes them in real time and commands automatic shifts from the transmission to the next gear, especially nice if the driver is in manual mode and red lines the engine.

Manual shifting is operated with the shifter lever in the ‘manual’ mode. The gear stick can also be used in the same manner as any automatic transmission, where the transmission will shift by itself.

Generation one C70 models came with 3 transmission choices.
1. a 4 speed manual transmission
2. a 5 speed automatic overdrive transmission/transaxle
3. a 5 speed manual transmission.

The Generation 2 C70 Volvo used only two transmissions, dropping the 4 speed automatic, since 4 forward speeds are becoming outdated, for a 5 speed automatic override transmission, and updating the standard transmission to a 6 sped model.

The automatic transmissions used in the C70 are called the Geartronic manumatic units. Geartronic transmissions are manufactured by in Japan by Aisin AW. FYI: It’s important to note that manumatic-Geartronic transmissions use factory automatic transmission fluid. Hopefully you never have to add fluid or you have a leak.

Ford Flex Transmissions for Sale F6, Everyday Low Prices

We know the Ford Flex as a modern, good looking sporty design wagon with many features including the interior room of a minivan, for those who don’t want an ordinary minivan. Essentially it is a 5 door station wagon built on a Ford D4 platform. Introduced recently, in 2009, the only transmission available is a 6 speed automatic overdrive transmission, or transaxle. GotTransmissions.com has Ford Flex transmissions for sale, F6, everyday low prices.

The Ford D4 platform is a front wheel drive setup, also available as an option is an AWD [all wheel drive] chassis, which is shared with the Lincoln CUV and new Ford Explorer. A front wheel drive design. Called a transverse mounting setup. Transverse mounting is the most common and efficient means of producing a front wheel drive vehicle. The most popular method of doing so now a days. With the engine/transmission mounted sideways under the hood.

The transmission, or more accurately, transaxle is called a 6F when used in Ford products. Believe it or not, in 2002 General Motors and Ford got together to make a common design that would work in certain transverse mounted setups in cars and light duty trucks. Ford manufactures their transmissions separately than GM.

With the introduction of the Ford Edge and Lincoln Aviator crossovers, the new 6F was developed to cover a wide range of vehicle applications. Initially it was be teamed with the new 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 in the Ford Edge and Lincoln Aviator. The transaxle also is designed to handle up to 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque with shift speeds modulated up to 7,000 rpm.

The 6F uses a standard compound planetary system and only double lined clutch plates, making each shift a a quiet, smooth shift, throughout all of the 6 forward gear ratios. In addition, the 6F uses a Ford produced control technology that uses complicated systems of computers and input metrics to operate at maximum levels.

The 6F automatic transaxle provides instant, responsive shifts throughout the forward gear range that are smooth yet solid, which indicates the shifts are positive and of high quality.

It is an interesting concept, a transmission developed by Ford and GM. So far, it has been a success. Very few reports of functional or warranty issues.

If you are in the undesirable spot of needing to replace your Flex transmission, allow us to council you on the best strategies to use in order to decide which replacement transmission suits your best interests.

Chevrolet 2500HD Transmissions for Sale


The Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Transmissions for the Regular Cab version are formidable, to say the least. Every transmission offered is a truck transmission, not a glorified beefed up car transmission. To put it differently, none of the transmissions found in the trucks I’m discussing come in any other vehicles Chevy sells. Chevrolet 2500HD Transmissions for Sale come in rebuilt, used and new crate versions.

Here is a list of automatic and manual transmissions used in the generation one 2500HD Silverado pickup truck:
1. 4-speed 4L80-E automatic overdrive w/ lock up torque converter
2. 5-speed Allison 1000 automatic [2001–2005] A true truck transmission, not a beefed up car transmission.
3. 6-speed Allison 1000 automatic [2006–2007]
4. 5-speed NV4500 manual was used from 2001–2007 with the 6.0l gasoline motor.
5. 6-speed ZF S6-650 truck grade manual gearbox from 2001–2006 in the 6.6 and 8.1 liter engines.

The second generation Silverado 2500HD trucks came with two automatic overdrive transmissions:
1. 4L-80E, a 4 speed automatic overdrive with lock up torque converter.
2. Allison 1000, updated to 6 forward speeds. Allison makes truck automatic transmissions only.

BTW: The new Silverado earned the North American Truck of the Year award for 2007 and was Motor Trend magazine’s Truck of the Year for 2007.

Allison Transmission Company is a division of General motors, well known for manufacturing large, heavy duty truck transmissions. Their entry into the light duty truck line is a pleasant surprise for truck owners looking for a truck with the ultimate transmission. My GMC 3500 is too old to have such a wonderful transmission available at that time.

I’m always surprised when a 2500HD needs a transmission job. I have not had that problem, however if I did, my choice would be one of GotTransmissions.com’s transmissions. Knowing that they use better than new parts and factory approved updates proves to me that I’m really saving money in the long run. I don’t want to keep putting transmissions in my truck, so I always buy the best value.

Don’t sell yourself short. Buy your replacement transmission from a company that regards ethics and morals as much as they value quality products. Call GotTransmissions.com and speak with an educated and courteous professional. Learn which replacement transmission is in your best interests. Call Now.

Toyota Venza Transmissions for Sale

The Toyota Venza is a newer car, introduced in America in 2008. It uses a U660E automatic transaxle, or transmission. The video displayed is one of the best descriptions I have looked at on how a transmissions operates, especially this unit. After watching this informational video, please contact GotEngines.com for Toyota Venza Transmissions for Sale. Thank You.

The Venza is a front wheel drive mid-sized crossover 5 door car. Using the most common and efficient front wheel drive setup currently made, technically known as a transverse mounting system. A transverse setup is where both the engine and transmission are bolted together and mounted side ways under the hood, in the front of the car.

The engine/transmission combo is actually mounted sideways [east to west], as opposed to a rear wheel drive vehicle, where the engine/transmission runs north to south, or with the axis of the car. Like the Avalon.

In the case of a front wheel drive vehicle only, there is a short axle shaft that runs from each side of the transaxle to each front wheel [left and right] to drive the car.

There is a difference between a transmission and a transaxle. A transaxle has the differential assembly in the same housing that the transmission is in, hence, a trans-axle. A nice convenient space saving setup.

One feature not often mentioned is the lock up torque converter. This feature is like having an extra forward gear, in essence. Increasing fuel economy and decreasing engine and transmission wear.

Although the Venza is a newer model car, GotTransmissions.com receives calls for replacement transmissions on occasion. Why would a transmission in such a newer car fail? Usually because the owner drives a lot, or an unfortunate occurrence like a transmission oil leak, or overheating problem occured.

Call now and speak with a courteous and knowledgeable salesperson. Allow us to council you on how to choose a replacement transmission that suits your needs to a tee. GotTransmissions.com offers peace of mind with every transmissions. Call now.

Transmissions Audi R8 for sale at GotTransmissions.com

One of most high performance cars in the world is the Audi R8. It is a mid engine sports car designed on the Lamborghini Gallardo platform. Exclusively designed by Audi GH’s high performance division. One would expect such a high performance car to have a transmission that matches it. The only two transmissions offered in the Audi R8 are for sale are available at GotTransmissions.com, in any form, used and remanufactured.

It’s the new definition of going fast in a super high performance luxury car. Fast and smooth, it hits 1000 mph before you know it. It is easy to gather a few tickets in this car. You have to drive one to believe it. My transmission shop rebuilt an R8 transmission several years ago. To say I was impressed with the car is an understatement.

Audi offer a six speed manual transmission, or gearbox. The manual transmission by Lamborghini is not made by Lambourghinin, it is a six-speed manual gearbox with a slotted metal shift gate for the shift lever. Very little information is made available concerning the specifics of this manual transmission. Technical specifics are not necessary to buy a replacement transmission. Only the VIN [vehicle identification number] and perhaps a transmission code.

The automatic transmission offered in the R8 is quite a work of art. R Electrohydraulic manual transmission is the technical name. It is a type of semi-automatic transmission, which uses an auto-engage clutch, unlike conventional manual transmissions where the driver operates the clutch. The clutch is controlled by electronic computers and a precision hydraulic system.

To change gears, the operator selects the desired gear with the transmission shift selector, and the system automatically sends real time signals to the computer which then operates the clutch and throttle to match RPM’s [revolutions per minute-engine] with road speed and gear ratio, and engage the clutch again. Also, many similar transmissions offer a sequential mode where the driver can only up-shift or downshift one gear at a time.

In essence, the driver can do the thinking if the driving conditions or feelings of the driver demand it. Or the transmission will operate in a fully automatic mode if desired. Very accommodating to every driver and every driving condition. Designed to take a beating like a race car.

To buy a replacement R8 transmission, call GotTransmissions.com and speak with a representative that knows exactly what you are talking about and how to sell you the right transmission for your needs. Superior quality always costs less. Experience our world class customer support. Call now.

Chevy Equinox Transmissions for Sale

Chevy Equinox Transmissions/Transaxles for Sale

Chevy Equinox Transmissions/Transaxles for Sale


Chevrolet introduced the Equinox as a Mid-Sized crossover SUV based on GM’s Theta platform. The first crossover attempt by Chevrolet. Not designed for heavy four wheeling like a truck, recreational use at the most. All variants of the Chevy Equinox Transmissions are for sale, including the AF33 automatic overdrive.

Side Note: Theta is General Motors’ compact and mid-size crossover SUV automobile platform. The Theta uses a four wheel independent suspension.

The Equinox is a front wheel drive vehicle with a four wheel drive option. Using a transverse mounted engine and transmission assembly, it runs east to west, or sideways under the hood of your car. In some cases we refer to these transmissions as a transaxle, since the transmission and differential are all in one case. This setup does not use a drive-shaft, instead it makes use of short axles, one on the left front, and one on the right front. These axles drive the front wheels, making it a front wheel drive car.

From 2004 to 2009 Chevrolet made the first generation Equinox. It used a 5 speed automatic transmission [AF33] with the 3.4 liter engine, and a 6 speed General Motors automatic overdrive transmission [6T70] with the 3.6 liter motor.

The AF-33 is a 5 forward speed automatic transaxle with a lock up torque converter. The AF33 was designed by AW [Aisn Warner] specifically for GM products. The model codes are AW55-50SN [front wheel drive], and AW55-51SN for all wheel drive.

The 6T70 is actually a joint venture between Ford and General Motors to create a new transaxle designed for transverse mounted assemblies. This transmission is a story by itself. Later I will write a blog on this transmission.

The second generation Chevy Equinox came out in 2009 and is still in production. The only transmission used was the 6 speed 6T70 transaxle assembly.

Finally, AMP electrics makes an all electric Theta SUV, and I have no information on which transmission it uses. The staff at GotEngines.com will know.

Since you may be here to study and then locate the perfect replacement transmission for your Equinox, lets get down to what is available for you. Our exclusive system of recycling facilities all over the country allows for expedient delivery of the best replacement transmissions no matter where you live.

Our lineup of replacement transmissions for the Equinox includes precision remanufactured and transmissions, low mileage used transmissions and brand new crate transmissions.

Nissan Cube Replacement Transmissions for Sale for Less


The Nissan Cube is one of the newer sportier variants of mini cars that cater to the surfer lifestyle. Called an MPV [multi purpose vehicle] because it will haul your surfboard to the beach or pick up the kids at school. Being a ‘leisure activity vehicle’, it’s market focus is for leisure activities and costs less as a general rule. GotTransmissions.com has Nissan Cube Replacement Transmissions for sale for less.

The Cube is a simple car, it uses a CVT transmission. CVT means continuously variable transmission. The way a CVT transmission works is different than a conventional automatic transmission. As a rule it does not use gears or planetary assemblies, or the conventional components used in ordinary transaxles which cause a fixed number shifts, and are easy to notice each shift.

The Cube is a front wheel drive car, called a transverse mounting system. The first generation Cube [1998-2002] offered a 4 speed automatic transmissions and CVT. The second generation [2002-2008] only offered a CVT.

CVT transmissions use an assembly that allows for infinite gear ratios. It sounds complicated, but it’s actually an easy design in concept. CVT transmissions are used in huge commercial equipment and many lawn mowers and tractors. A favorite of large tractor company’s for many years.

It simply took some time to develop a small mini car sized CVT that offered the same seamless performance in small vehicles that has been accomplished in the large vehicles. It sounds unusual to reverse engineer a transmission from big to small. The CVT offers better fuel efficiency and superior performance in mini cars and hybrids. They offer excellent durability as well with proper maintenance.

The best replacement transmissions for the Nissan Cube are low mileage certified used transmissions. Transmissions that are removed from low mileage cars, perhaps they were wrecked and totaled or another reason caused the transmission to be available, and that is how we out-perform the competition, we have access to the finest recoiling yards all over the country.
