How much could a new or used transmission cost for a 1995 Nissan Maxima?
So I went to go have my tires changed and learned from the mechanic that my transmission is slipping and I'll sooner or later need a new one. If I can find one for cheap that could be great, but I just want to set my price range 1st. So does anybody know how much a transmission for the 95 maxima could usually be?

I am trying to save you a lot of money. I have a '95 Nissan Maxima with 190,000 miles on it. These cars have really good transmissions so 1st check the condition of the liquid it should be red. If it isn't, I could propose you get a drop pan service, in which the filter will be changed and a bit more than half the liquid will be changed. This service is typically around $100

I don't propose the flush, I do not trust them. This isn't essentially why your transmission is slipping. it is typically attributed to low liquid level. be sure you do not have a leak and be sure the liquid level is correct.

You can also have some minor slipping caused by loose thin liquid, where the liquid may be red but thin, in which you'll want to have the drop pan service also. If you're unsure how to check the liquid level, get someone who does because for awhile I was unsure of how to check it.

Hope this helps.

Used, based on mileage $400 $700 plus install. Rebuilt Around $800, as well as labor. New, from dealer $3000 plus install

Your ATF type is Dexron III

A used one should not cost you more than $1,000 out the door. A new one will not be worth it. Check sites like cnsmotors.com for a used direct from Japan low mileage one. They usually have around 35,000 miles on them.
