I would like to know if it is a good idea to replace the transmission on this car or buy another car.  
  
  
  
 The car’s engine is still good. 120k mi…  
  
  
  
 If I decide to get another transmission, what is the best way to buy another one.

The car is worth less than changing the transmission fluid. Not true, but you’re kidding too. Sorry, a human can’t make a face like that and not be serious.

transmission is making it hard to shift gears…currently it will take a while to move to drive on continuously.
