transmission code
I read somewhere that my94+ had most of the transmission fixes done do it. My transmission code starts with a 7 and most of the fixes were done prior to 6 so does that mean I do not have to worry about the heat/gumup problems with this tranny?
thanks tr ps and does that mean if I put a my97 tranny it should be good as gold. |

i've got a '97 and i still put in an aftermarket cooler/filter. tranny will still get above 200 deg on a hot day going up hills. if you get a temp gauge you can monitor when its getting hot and take measures to cool it down, such as avoiding inclines, coasting, etc. i said before, if i had to do it over again, i'd get a cooler with a fan and the programmable temp gauge that would trigger the fan at a preset temp. check out www.summitracing.com for coolers/filters/gauges.

trany code
I just purchased a 94 L fwd with 70k on it. The previous owner maintained it pretty well.. anyway I have the following question.
with occasional bursts of WOT (maybe once a day!) no hills well maintained (3 month oils changes etc.) no after market cooler, do you think I'll be able to get 130K+ miles on the trany. I know this is a semi far fetched question but .... All my other subies (legacys) went at least 150k miles (driven real hard) I know this is not an apple to apples comparison but I can't believe the tranny is that bad. thanks tr |
