Talking to the mechanic that was pulling it out (along with the engine) the rebuild cost was $16k. This application was in a big crane that you can drive over the road.
It is no consolation to the OP.

I was reading the other post that you knew the tranny had problem when you pulled the trigger to buy the car. You HAD to assume the worst and factored in $2.5K for a replacement unit. You best bet is to get a replacement unless you are going to wrench it yourself. No cheap MBZ comes cheap.

Good luck.
