The head gaskets were only a problem in '92 (and maybe some '93).

The tranny flair is my problem, and I'm still battling Audi on
it. I don't think it's an endemic problem to the 01A trannies,
but just something wrong inside mine.

I don't think there are any significant changes between '95
and '96 model years.
