[QUOTE="affan66, post: 74186, member: 65"] it also depends on age, not only mileage. If the gearbox is already 10 years old and mileage is low, it doesn't mean you don't have to overhaul your gearbox. The internal plastics get brittle and break, causing less pressure buildup in the valvebody, thus making the gearbox jerky and leaking. That is a sign to overhaul. In my case, I overhauled at 120k km. I am no Schuey and follow diligently the top up, flush and even the D-N-P, one by one gearshift step to avoid torque convertor shock. One forummer said my gearbox is even better than his when he bought new years ago. [/QUOTE]
