(Sorry to reply through notes, but I don't have direct access to uucp.) Automatic transmissions have really been a sore spot in recent vintage Firebirds. Failures with less than 10,000 miles on the odometer have been common enough that GM has been buying such cars back from their disgusted owners for the full purchase price! Naturally, GM isn't advertising this policy, and only the REALLY determined shaftees receive such satisfaction... --Bob Tracy ...!ctvax!uokvax!rctracy
