Should we expect transmission to die soon??? Should we pay for new a/c or just wait it out?
Van has 135000 miles on it, driving fine, well maintained. Currently has small transmission fluid leak, but all fluids at good level. Anyway to prevent transmission failure or is it inevitable? Should we bother replacing transmission or just send her to the junkyard? We would like a/c again, but at $1200 and possible transmission loss, would we get any life out of it. We like the van, have small kids and would prefer to drive it rather than get a newer one that might just have the same problems. Any thoughts?
