It's your delusion. Not mine at all. You must have done something serious to be able to ruin this transmission. This transmission is rated 131 hp, and is mated to an engine that produces 108. You should congratulate yuourself for being clever enough to ruin an transmission rated 28 HP more than the engine can produce. The spec for 1st gear is 34MPH. You probably managed to exceed that, and probably the 2nd gear spec, too. Ever hear of an Owner's Manual? It's in there.

All they have to do is list US made models. They make a LOT more models than this.

I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. 2. From his postings here, he appears to be just about enough of a hammerhead to actually ruin a transmission in a Tercel thinking it was some kind of Boy Racer car... He needs to blame Toyota for his own lack of Common Sense. Thing is, I did what he did with my Tercel and had no problems. And he never did respond to the comment I made about ATF service...

"but all i did was put my foot down", etc? none. there are literally millions of #2's out there, but suddenly, our friend pops up and pops off with just the kind of unproven but inflammatory "allegation" that the other paid sociopaths are posting. bottom line, he's making it up. -- nomina rutrum rutrum |
