2005 CVT repair options
I have a 2005 Civic Hybrid with 44,000 miles on it. It has the CVT transmission, which has failed. Which has the best suggestion? a rebuild by a local shop recommended by the Honda Dealer or a remanufactured unit from Car Parts Planet? Any suggestions?

Either a dealership or some remanufactured are your only real options. I suspect they're priced uneconomically, though. Both would have some warranty attached so I guess it's whichever you'd rather. What makes you think it's failed? 44k seems unusually low.

Two Honda dealers looked at it and confirmed that it needed to be replaced. Can't say exactly what they determined was wrong. Symptoms was a loud pop and then it wouldn't shift in any gear. I suspect that it was the belt/chain but I am not a mechanic.
