Need a 1999 Sub Legacy OB Tranny


Recommended Posts

suggestions for locating a decent used tranny? Of course try to get a warranty, but beyond that expect to pay $300-$600 excluding labor? I won;t pay $1500 for aamco...or dealer..

 

2.5 DOHC

 

 

thx Bill

 

automatic?

 

what is the problem with your trans?

 

i assume you are looking for the auto trans with the part number, something like, TZ1A4ZJEBA, this was used in most of the 99 outbacks. a very very few used the trans with the number TZ102Z2DBA, this trans was also used in 97 + 98.

 

check the id tag under the hood on the driver side strut tower for the trans number. if you have the .....JEBA trans you will have to use one from 99. if you have the ...2DBA trans you can use any outback trans from 96 - 98. (or any 96 - 98 2.5L trans, but the speedo may be off a little.)

Yes automatic...the problem is the 30 seconds to 1 minute delay when shirfting from Park to Drive (or 1 & 2) for car to move...dealer is convinced the transmission is shot and needs to be replaced...dealer says replacing the AT fluid would not help...?

put in the TransX additive. My brothers recently acquired 99 outback had the 30 second delay when going from Park to D and the additive fixed it in about 20 minutes time.

 

cost about6.50 its in the blue can in the stores. the particular 1999 model year of outback did this delayed engagement, and the solution is this additive
