Hello everyone.

I own a 2010 dodge caliber. The transmission doesn't shift properly. You can rev the car to 5000 RPM and the speed will not go past 30mph. Mechanics said the car needs a new transmission. I read online that it's a CVT.

I live in the US and I'm thinking about buying the transmission myself on ebay and paying for labor, fluid, and programming since the quote I'm getting is way too high. I intend to change the car in about a year and don't want to spend unnecessarily high amount of money on it but I need it to work well for now. Does anyone have advice on what to look for, be careful of, based on their experience? You can also suggest alternative websites or contacts or anything. Thank you.
