I was recently informed by my mechanic that I will need a new transmission for my car. What are the differences, and pros vs. cons of a used and a rebuilt transmission. He said the rebuilt will run about twice as much. I have a 2005 Honda Civic Si with about 70,000 miles on it.

Used vs. Rebuilt Transmissions

I assume Si means manual transmission.

The chances with issues with a used manual transmission are pretty low. I would go with that.
