i wouldn't worry our trannys are pretty noisy to say the least...

No major issues with my trannie either. Only thing is that every now and then it fails to engage reverse. Currently have ~250whp, 13000kms...

1. first transmission swap at 2,xxx km's (~12xx miles)
no mods, don't race. reason: had a tranny leak.

2. at 7,xxx km's (~45xx miles)
no mods, don't race. experiencing " {!} transmission service required "
waiting to bring to stealership to investigate.

like wtf, is it just me, or do i have a complete **** lemon of a car? are there any options at this point? bought car brand new and might have another tranny related problem. I didn't pay what i paid to have a car fail on me twice..

ya im good, dont have any problems whatsoever, when you get on these things all you ever hear is the worst stories and it makes you worry. But im going strong no issues whatsoever and i have done quiet and few mods and plan to kkeep on going, and i will be dropping in the clutch packs if possible we will see. Money is always an issue. Dunno how everyones trannys keep blowing with such low mileage yall must be driving like *******s or something i have 14.5k miles on mine.
