Poll: Answer if your transmission was replaced
Guys, I want to get the total number of people whose transmission has gone bad and was replaced. Also, please state if you drive hard and/or floor it.

Yes, Had my tranny replaced. I need to do a little research on the mileage, but would have to say around 26-27k miles was when the tranny finally gave it all up and had to be replaced.
I've done a high speed driving school with my Type S, as well as three or four AutoX'es with it. I think the power braking was finally what got to it (I only went to the 1/4 mile like 4 times, only power braking the last two, in which I had about a total of 5 runs).
I need to check up on the VIN to post the build date again (I thought we tried this a while back) Needless to say, no more AutoX'es, no SC, and definetly never ever going to the 1/4 mile again.
