'91 200 and '92 S4 trannies

Once upon a time I said:

Now having reread the S4 Registry spec sheet referenced above, I do _not_
see any such mention of tranny. But I _know_ I did not dream it up. So I
must regretfully withdraw the sentence that relates to "material quoted by
the S4 Registry..." Sorry. Can anyone provide clarification?
