Is there any truth to the statement that the higher VIN numbers have less transmission problems.

will have had my FWD a year as of this June 22, and I haven't had any grinding at all. People with much later VIN's than mine have had the grind. I personally think that they have a quality control problem and there are big batches of bad trannies because of parts tolerance issues.<p>

albeit a minor one that was corrected with synthetic gear oil of a different weight than stock. This was a dealer-corrected item, not my own "idear".
My tranny has been great since. 12,000 miles on her this week.<p>Ivan
