2000 Xc transmission leak V70-XC70

So the wife's XC leaked most of it transmission fluid and ran dry (almost) to the point where car wont move..if i add fluid i still managed to move it to the driveway. car now makes an awfull scrapping noise (trans pump running dry?)
in any effect i want to fix this..
what are my options?

Remove the tranny and..

Rebuild this one w a new pump?
i guess this is the harder route, where would one get the rebuild kits for these? is there even such a thing?

install a used FWD only unit..this XC has been fwd only for some time..

thank you!

2000 Xc transmission leak V70-XC70

There are no kits for the AW tranny. You didn't mention where the leak is. Running it dry probably ruined the pump which is now noisy, and the bands.

I would just replace the tranny with a FWD. Before you install the 'new' one, clean the solenoids if you can.

When you are done, remove the AWD stickers on the rear of the car.
