I have a 2001 Oldsmobile Silhouette minivan with 103,XXX miles. We just paid $1,728 to have the transmission completely rebuilt. Our transmission started whining and shifting hard from time to time about a month ago. I first had the Transmission Fluid and filter changed, thinking the filter might be clogged. The van was whining only once or twice a week in the beginning, but soon started doing it more often. It mostly made the noise when we were driving around town making frequent stops and starts. After taking the transmission apart, the shop found the front bearing was wore and the overdrive clutch hub was shot. They put in a complete overhaul kit, new clutches, bearing kit, and a total of 5 or 6 updates to fix common factory problems with this transmission. The updates will supposedly make this transmission better than it was from the factory. Time will tell.
