What everyone is missing here is that @Cavell needs a transmission to put in a car he’s trying to resell. All he wants is that the new buyer can drive it away. He’s obviously working with a tight budget. With that set of rules there’s not too much that can be done except to rule out front end crashes and hits to either front wheel. I guess sniffing the fluid on the dip stick to see if it smells burnt would help.
