Assumption about CL transmissions ?!
Can we assume for those people whose tranny works fine after 15-20K miles that they will probably not have any problems in future with tranny?
I think defective transmissions fail before person drives 20K miles.
if you pass 20K miles it is likely that your tranny has no deffects???

One thing that I have noticed is that these transmissions take a long time to switch from forward to reverse gears. One thing I ALWAYS make sure to do is, when backing up stop completely and you will feel it engage into drive. If you don't you will be sure to see a burnt up tranny on no time at all.

I notice the same thing, Dynmicracer. I ALWAYS wait for the gear to engage before gassing it. Most autos I've ever driven are like that, but it seems the CL-S is especially slow to engage into both D and Reverse.
