Is this a normal thing that happens with these cars?
How much does it cost?
Is there a chance that he could have messed it up while installing the new transmission?
Thanks for the input!

If a new or rebuilt transmission has been installed obviously you should have AWD. He is probably making a vague reference to solenoid valve "c", which controls the center clutch, which in turn distributes drive proportionally front or rear. This solenoid is part and parcel of the transmission and should have been replaced along with clutch plates if a proper overhaul was done.
From what you report, the transmission rebuilder should carry the can and the fix should cost you nothing.
