People with tranny failure..

I know, Not another " tranny thread" but I just need to know how you guys drive your TL in order for it to fail sooner. I know that it is the bad design and theres nothing we can do but atleast I can prolong it. I am over the 100K warranty so I need to keep this tranny as long as possible and dont want to dish out $2k+ for rebuild.
Which of these would fall into your category for those of you who have failures:

1) Drive hard very often
2) Using the manual shift
3) driving in D5
4) driving in D4


Maybe I can sum it down and hope to keep my tranny for a long time .
Right now my tranny is shiffting really good and im going to do the drain and fill 3X

i think you're just the luck of the draw. Most TLers dont have any issues but most people on this forum do. No style of driving is going to prevent the tranny failure. Yours just held together past 100K.
