Ikenna351: @ ZIM DRILL,

I think you really don't get it. It's a mindset thing bro.

Nigeria is a country where a Nigerian will tell you "You are poor, thats why you couldn't afford auto trans car" or " You bought a manual trans car because you couldn't afford auto trans car". Yes, i get these a lot. Some have even asked me "If Peugeot had produced 505 V6 auto trans car, wouldn't you have gone for auto trans of the car instead of the manual trans i bought?" I would wonder in silence, " If 505 didn't get auto tranny, how come 404 got?"

I met someone the other day who bought a Peugeot 406 auto trans. While congratulating him, he told me the 406 is "American specc". I asked him who told him that, he said it was the car dealers that sold the car to him. I couldn't help but wonder if there is Canada and USA in Europe i do not know of. Things we do to sell our cars!

Some will tell you they prefer American spec cars since they come with airbags everywhere in the car, while Euro spec cars come with only 2 or 3 airbags. Yet, the death on our highways have not reduced.

When people are ready to replace their auto trans severally before they get rid their cars, what can you do? When people are scared to travel with their auto trans cars, simply because of fear the trans may decide to give up while into the journey.

Thank God that the brand of car i like sells in Europe, meaning, i will always get the manual version of any of their products am interested in.

But then, there is nothing wrong with auto transmission. But one should be ready to live with it's annoyances or deal with it.

Ikenna.

ba_aliyah: For me it is choice, if you like manual trans stick to it,I drive the two perfectly and will never look down on a manual car. I never had problems with auto tyranny. Car has many components,transmission is just one of them,if u take care of ur car u wont have serious headache. Imagine Ikenna driving an auto trans car he is not likely to have problem,so also, many people. Our auto technicians, fake parts and
wrong trans fluid are also factors. For me I enjoy auto

ZIM DRILL:

so the question is, are auto parts dealers selling sub standard items? and are people not learning fro other people's mistake eg one ATF is sub standard and motorist pass on the infor to one another until the manufacturer sees that people nolonger by the product

lonelydora: I enjoy auto trans within town, and manual trans when travelling. I'm a registered member of Honda Forum on the internet, so I ask questions there before going to my mechanic. Infact, my mechanic baffles when I tell him whAt and whAt to change for me.

sultaan: like you not replacing it and making sure it is really bad kind of question.

If you have the wrong fluid in there you will be paying that mechanic for a long time


Do you have any scan code that says it is bad? And what color is your transmission fluid, who and when was the last time you serviced it
