With no fluid changes, it would depend on driving habits and the environment. The warmer the climate, the quicker auto transmission fluid goes bad.
Not sure on the cost but most cars are around $2000 for transmission jobs

He asked for an average rebuild price. If you just take the car to a shop for a transmission they will likely charge around 2k

I offered up a used transmission price because the thought of rebuilding over buying a used one is absolutely absurd.
