The dealer is pretty good at that stuff, ya know.

All this nice weather has me wondering about the track opening. Did you ever get the intercooler swapped out?

The wife's '19 Pathfinder 2wd with whatever tires they come with did excellent also. Only problem was when I was in reverse with steering at full lock and WOT, the front end would whip around and the girls in the backseat would giggle uncontrollably. The girl in the passenger seat did not.

Yes.

A/T are mostly clutches also. Kinda like a brake pad. Yes I do. Yes it is.

So preventative maintenance of filter and fluid is the same to you as a worn out clutch? I guess I could see it that way, if I were blinded by my own personal affection for one over the other. But, being unbiased in this discussion, I cannot see it that way. Oil changes =/= engine failure. Fluid changes =/= transmission failure. Clutch failure = M/T failure. Torque converter failure = A/T failure.

That doesn't make sense. Do you count an oil change as an engine failure? I mean, you changed the filter right?

Yeah, I think you should be counting TC in your data.

uhhhh you?

So we're ignoring clutches in your statistics? Kind of an integral part of a manual trans isn't it?

It sounds like people with M/T are taking them to a shop that works on them instead of an A/T specialist like yourself. As someone who dealt with warranty on M/T for an OEM I can attest to the fact that indeed they do have problems. I got broken transmissions in all the time.

well I think 95%+ of new vehicles sold in the US today are automatics so it would reason that you're going to see way more of them.

Dry as a bone.

Yes they are.
