    the regret is coming from is the whole valve body thing. i just sent it back for replacement or repairs. going to be at least 2 more weeks before i get my liberty back. rebuild was either 12 or 13 hours so about $1200 for labor.

    what did they say was wrong with it? my is turning into a headache and i now wish i just went with the reman. $2900 for rebuild id say get a reman which should be anywhere from $2800 to $3500 depending on brand, who is installing it, and warranty. $2400 for a used seems too high. i paid i...

    my first went at 168K and this one started to have issues at 180k(came used with 40k). at 150k its a matter of time before something else goes. ya might as well look into replacing clutch packs, convertor, etc... see if ya can get a cold and hot pressure test done to check the pump.

    probably a lot in labor cost but i would assume cheaper than rebuilding. its right behind the torque convertor.

    poorly paraphrased readers digest version: early 41te/42rle had a crescent style pump with a tilted pocket. late models (2003 and on) have a dual cycloidal pump with a square/straight pocket to fix prime issues associated with the tilted pocket, better fuel, and less load on engine. the dual...

    the sonnax guy was very helpful and listened to my tranny drama. based on his experience these types of codes can be linked to the pump size....hehe... he mentioned that up to a certain year they had a high volume pump but then offered a smaller low volume pump for better fuel efficiency. i...
