Transmissions. There's like a 15% chance that a repair replacement will still leave you with a mess even with a professional and unlimited cash.
(I personally don't like automatic for that reason)
Doing it yourself, well I wouldn't do that with plenty of insurance and a deathwish. (I don't recommend people do their own brakes either.) You could get lucky, but your car is almost 15 years old now.
You may not want to hear it, but its time to weigh how much a junkyard would give you for scrap vs what Trade-In value you would get sans transmission repair costs. Its time to start thinking down-payment on another used car.
