Buying a used transmission: what to check

Ask for the donor mileage. Under 80K miles leaves significantly more service life.
Confirm the torque converter is included with automatics; most yards include it, but verify.
Match engine and drivetrain exactly. A CVT from a base trim won't fit a manual sport trim.
Ask if the unit was test-driven or fluid-inspected before the donor was dismantled.
Plan a fluid and filter change at install. Old fluid in a good unit causes avoidable failures.
