I got a car from a used car lot and it was sold as is, its been less than a week and there might be a huge problem, I might have to get my transmission rebuilt, and where I took it in they said the transmission had been flushed and it might have been done to hide the problem... So does the 'as is' sale void the lemon law?

While being sold "as is" does negate the lemon law, the law also says that you have 7 days to back out of any contract. So if it has been less than a week you should be able to take the car back and get your money. If he is resistant inform him of the 7 day law and if necessary inform him that there might also be legal ramifications of him obscuring a defect in the car.
Even though the car is sold as is, it is highly questionable if the dealer is attempting to represent the car as being in better condition than it is. If all else fails, I'd consult an attorney.

The lemon law applies only to new cars, so it won't apply to your car. Sorry! I recently bought a used transmission and it works great - you might try that to save some money.

The Lemon Law only applies to new cars and other items. Key word here is NEW.

I believe the lemon law only applies to new vehicles

Go back and talk to the people where you bought the car,if they offer no assistance,call an attorney.
