Part out or fix 2000 528it
 Its looking more and more that i need to replace the tranny in my touring wagon (2000 528--see other post on e39 does not crank after revving high if curious about specifics). A reliable indy (360 miles away) quoted me at $3875 for parts and labor with the rebuilt tranny coming from a reputable supplier in CA. The car is beautiful (silver with black interior). I just put money into suspension parts and the control module for traction control was just fixed. New radiator, front door seals, alternator, and rear ball joints... It needs front shocks. I figure (looking at ebay) that a car like this (with 165,000 miles on it) is worth about $6500. Do i fix or give up? Has anyone had luck parting out their car? it sounds like a pain in the arse. What could i get for parts do you think? ...and over what time frame??
