[BiturboS4] re: transmissions

[David Pramanik]

Thanks Wally!  And I'm still not convinced that I'm wrong.  Just because
Getrag made some good transmissions for BMW doesn't mean that they couldn't
possibly make the troublesome one in the S4.

And Erik, it sounds like you have more of an issue the driveline lash and
engine movement than with the transmission itself.  Those problems have more
to do with engine mounts and AWD drivetrain and not the faults of the
transmission.

I have to say (no offense to the Tip owners), I'd take the crappy 6-spd over
a Tiptronic any day.
