I baby Layla mostly. Just when an M3 is riding my but, I had to give him a run.

My goal, is to get another 50K out of the tranny, and another 200k out of the enigne. We will see.

417,000 is a good goal.....I know lots of people that have got high 300's out of Jap cars.

Do you know why you lost reverse ? I have a 95 with 185k that just lost reverse...

Wow!!! 3 tranny's with the exact same problem. All I remember is something about the valve body failing or not lubricating. Sorry I can't help you out more. ya might want to explore putting in a 90-93 tranny for the better first gear acceleration if you have to do a tranny swap.

I lost reverse as well at 112k. Got the trans rebuilt and it hasnt felt the same since. I miss my old car.

you should add a pint bottle of LUBE GUARD (the RED bottle) to your tranny fluid. It will eleminate the chatter/shudder. Lube Guard is absolutely the BEST lubricant for clutches that have to make smoothly.

If you have chatter/shudder on a shift, you should add a pint bottle of LUBE GUARD (the RED bottle) to your tranny fluid. It will eleminate the chatter/shudder. Lube Guard is absolutely the BEST lubricant for clutches that have to make smoothly.
