I heard a rumor that its the same tranny as the 10V 90's... that isnt
true?
DOnt they have the same part number?

When looking up the tranny part number on the fiche, it doesnt
differentiate between engines, which IMPLIES that the trannies are the
same.

AKU or AXL trannies were used on ALL 90Q's

Production dates UP TO 8/31/90 use tranny AKU
Production dates AFTER 9/1/90 use AXL trannies,

So it looks more like finding the right date of the tranny.
