Registered SVX
2nd tranny

The first one didn't go out though. My Aunt who had the car before me was best friends with the suby dealer in CA where she lives. She had a 100K warranty on it and in 99 he was hearing a lot of stories about the early model SVX's tranny going bad so at like 98K miles she offered to replace it for her and put in a 97 transmission because it had a larger valvle body. I bought it right after that (anne doesn't drive anything out of warranty) and its been driving fine since then. Of course, as soon as i got it from her and joined the old yahoo club i bought a B&M tranny cooler and had it installed along with a filter.
