About Our Remanufactured AW55-50SN Transmission
Your Aisin AW55 50SN transmission is a central part of keeping your vehicle running smoothly and shifting gears effortlessly. When your transmission is working right, it’s easy to overlook it. If it’s been slipping, making noises, or shifting roughly, these are all signs that it’s time to replace it. Can’t you just take it out and rebuild it in your garage? Doing this might be a possibility if you have new parts. However, you’re going to end up with a rebuilt transmission that only has some new parts mixed in with older parts. This doesn’t guarantee that you’ll be able to drive your car smoothly. Instead of rebuilding, consider getting a remanufactured AW55-50SN transmission.
Reman-Transmission carries refurbished AW55-50SNs that have re-machined or new parts. Every part of these transmissions is replaced with parts that, at minimum, meet original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications. Some of these parts even exceed OEM specs. Our refurbishing process also involves addressing any factory defects in the AW55-50SN transmission that are known. Doing this means we’re able to offer you a remanufactured transmission that might even perform more reliably than a new one purchased from a factory. That’s just part of what sets Reman-Transmission above the competition.
Remanufactured AW55-50SN transmissions aren’t the only option. We have used AW55-50SNs available as well. Buying a used one can offer a more affordable way to replace your AW55-50SN if you’re trying to keep costs as low as possible. Keep in mind that a lower price tag doesn’t mean lower quality. In fact, we conduct a thorough inspection of all used AW55-50SNs. Our team makes sure these transmissions are in adequate working condition, so customers can depend on them for safe, smooth driving. Whether you purchase a used or remanufactured AW55 50SN from Reman-Transmission, you can count on getting a high-quality transmission.
While we do our best to minimize your risk of having problems with your transmission, we understand that issues can still occur. To cover this and give our customers some peace of mind, we offer warranties on our AW5550SN transmissions. If you get a used one, you’ll have a warranty that’s good for as long as six months or 6,000 miles. If you purchase a refurbished one, your warranty will have unlimited mileage and be good for up to 36 months. At Reman-Transmission, we also offer flat-rate shipping to get your used or remanufactured transmission to you. This rate is $270, no matter where in the U.S. you are. We’ll ship your AW55-50SN transmission as soon as possible, so you can replace yours promptly.
