    Depending on the extent of damage, but I minced mine completely and it cost $4300. Started out as a 2k rebuild.

    I take it your using the patrol trans? For availability I would be having a good look at going to the gm trans especially the 6 speed as you have pointed out.

    I just found out my auto breather was blocked the other day. I could hear this hissing noise while I was airing down the tyres and traced it inside the bonnet to the trans dipstick, cracked it open and heard a big rush of air. next weekends job will be checking and cleaning\replacing all breathers on the car for peace of mind.

    I rebuild my GQ auto for around $1600, so yeh 3k would sound about right.

    Shame you weren't in Sydney I would sell you mine for $1500 if it was the same gearbox
