Mind you I'm not sure on the change John, might be $163.20 or so. Somewhere between .20 and .50. Don't worry though, these guys are just trying to pull your leg.
Quick gasket change and it's all over, painless.

I hope you are right Lancer... but if they claim you need a new tranny, thank them, and then tell them you will be picking up your car so you can get a second opinion.
If it's just a leak, Lancer's guess is best. If it's been leaking for a while, and you're just now noticing it, mine is best.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
And some shops won't let you buy parts for them to install, since they markup parts and it's calculated together with their hourly rate to achieve the proper profit margin.

It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

If they continue to say you need a new tranny...
Make sure you get a written estimate from them when you pick up your car. Then, at least you won't feel so ripped off if the next place you take it to says the same thing and gives a similar cost estimate.

So, basically, they're greedy bastards?
Say, how much a Clutch replacement would've costed in the US?
My solution to lease a couple of building to automobile service companies, and make sure they know what their landlord can do to them if he has a mind to do so.

Sounds expensive.. only for transmission!? Man, get a manual while you're at it, stays healthy and chicks love it when you do u-turns dropping from 3rd gear to 1st gear in the 7/11 parking lot.

Yes, transmission is bad, but THAT bad? What's the main factor of the cost, Ming? It costs around half that much here. IIRC.
I financed used cars for several years. Ming's estimate for a full transmission job are about correct. There really is no justification for this price. Materials and labor should come to less than half that. This is a case of providers charging what the market will bear.
