Wave Spring Poll

[KWAWD]

I'm curious about the broken wave spring issue as discussed here.

Let's see if we can get some stats from those who have experienced this.
Poll open to all gens and not just AWD

Please post your comments in the other thread.

[EDIT] fixed poll. You can vote more than once if applicable.
Choose ALL options that apply to you! Choose one mileage range that most applies.

C'mon guys who've had this experience of a broken wave spring: pls vote so we can get some stats going!

I'd be interested to know if any TW models have done a wave spring?

Great idea, but I don't appear to have ability to edit the poll!
Maybe a kind Mod could update it to include the following options:

Happened to my L series
Happened to my W series

My old transmission spat out a chunk of wave spring when I dropped the fluid. It had 234500k on it.

My TW AWD has done 169,000 and trans is silky smooth. Last 12,000+ have been with 6G75 motor and it's all good.

But your car still drove? How could it have been your wave spring? I thought it was just making noises and clunking...

I would be more interested in finding out how many people clock up over 200,000 km with the 4 speed transmission WITHOUT having the wave spring break on them, without concern for it being FWD or AWD, or model . . . .

Maybe add this to the poll?

Nooby question, What the heck is a wave spring LOL

[pretzil]

Are 4spd auto 99 TH magnas included?

Cos we haven't had a single gearbox problem with ours and its at over 340,000kms, very unregular servicing, stock cooler.
I'd be surprised if the auto has ever been flushed since we've had it actually...

The car is second hand and probably had about 100,000kms when we got it, but maybe it had already been replaced before then? When did they start replacing it with the new spring?
I guess I could have a look through the service log

(Touch wood)



Edit: Wait, sorry is this just an AWD problem? Just saw that this is in the AWD Forum section, ours is a FWD so maybe disregard...?

open to all gens and not just AWD. Probably should be moved to another forum.
