All in, more money than the car is worth.
So this car having tranny issues now AND being a 4matic that will fail eventually, it's just not a good idea.

Rip that shit out, get a 5.0 and a T5 together for under a g, throw that bitch in, get a driveshaft, engine mounts and the wiring done, boom, sick ass ride with great reliability and parts cheaper than a King George girlfriend
