Tranny down, Tranny down

I know this will get moved but I just had to write something here:

After 28, 900k miles, Tranny one is done

Luckily I was just getting on the highway and not actually driving too fast when my tranny went on my way to work this morning.

Now Im pimpin it - in a '03 Buick LaSabre ( Whoo Hoo ) - freakin rentals

That car made me car sick, its way too bouncy and soft, Im actually light headed from dring the thing 40 miles to work...

Ouch, sorry to hear that man... i just hit 60k on my first tranny. I think i'm either in for a catastrophic failure, or am very lucky.

Judging by my VIN, my car was made 9,000+th - Pretty early in 2nd Gen production cycle - so that may answer why mine has gone and yours remains OK - But I noticed that it is about a 4 month process from the beginning of tranny slipping until the end of the tranny ( at least in my case)
