How much would it cost to switch from a manual transmission to an automatic transmission?

I have a 2.8L 2000 Jetta VR6 and was wondering what it would cost to get it switched from a manual transmission to an automatic transmission? Appriciate the help.|||Get on vwvortex.com.


Go the the Golf IV %26amp; Jetta IV parts forum


Find someone parting out a Jetta or Golf, doesn't matter.


Make an offer on the parts you need.





Remember you will need a few interior pieces as well and the seller should have a price listed but you can haggle a bit. It won't be cheap but it won't be expensive if you do the work yourself.|||well...


you need a fly wheel, torque converter, transmission, you may need a different drive shaft, cooling lines for your radiator, and maybe even a radiator. depending on what year vehicle it is you may need to change the computer on your car and add wiring. thennn, if you dont know how to switch it out yourself youre gonna have to pay to get it done.





..so, in the end you'd come out cheaper just buying or trading for an automatic.|||The best way is to get a wrecked car exactly like yours %26amp; swap over all the parts need then try to resale the car to somebody else for the same money thereby costing you nothing.


Check the papers or a wrecking yard for the prices.|||WHAT??





There's more to it than just switching transmissions! You'll introduce more problems!





Forget it! Probably more than the vehicle is worth! If you want an automatic transmission then shop for a vehicle that already has one.|||It would be thousands, at least, even if it could be done in any practical way. Much cheaper to just trade it in and get an automatic version.|||too much, manual is good (you have more control and better economy) or just sell a car and buy auto
