not sure this is the place to post this thread...

My syncros have gone out for 2nd gear completly and i have asked BMW of Fairfax how much it all is in parts at there cost without the Bcca membership (that i still havent gotten yet cuz of the lack of $$$ on my part) and it looks to be not too bad of price. well here is the big question at hand, do i spend the money to get the parts to just turn around and go to some other place to have them installed since BMW of Fairfax wont touch it because they dont do that kind of work or do i just look into a tranny replacement instead? and if i go that route what kind of costs am i looking at??

one reason i am in my own mind leaning tword replaceing the entire tranny with either a used or new one is also because the car has over 200K of milage and i have no real way of knowing if the tranny was ever replaced in the past as well.

so any input or advice would be a huge help on this subject.

thanks in advance
