you my friend, have obviously never talked to someone who has worked on transmissions all their life. quit enjoying the internet BS and talk to a real transmission mechanic (not iffy lube, not aamco...but a shop that works on tranmissions only). then come back. bye bye.

AAANNDDD, if had taken care of the problem in the first place (its called regular maintence), my bet is this thread would have never been made. i am a firm beleiver that preventative maintence is the key, so you are assuming i am one of those people who waites till something breaks to fix it. i make a living off those types people working for a japanese engine importer. so you lose at this post. you go now.
