Okay I need some mechanic advice. I have a 2011 Subaru legacy 3.6r, when I bought it the transmission went out, so I paid for a used transmission, it's not at 165k miles and I'm told again I need a new transmission or a rebuild.

Rebuild would be $5400- but I'd have to take another loan out to fix this thing. I owe about $6000 on the car. Financially I know that I'd be at a loss when comparing it to the value of the car, but I can't afford to buy a new car and pay on a car that rots in a driveway.

My actual question: is there something really wrong with these transmissions to the point a rebuild would just be delaying another total fail?
