Well, there are no vacuum leaks. However, when I'm more abusive to the car than I would ever be in a real driving situation, I can get the car to stick in 3rd gear and the 'Check Gearbox' indicator comes on. Then when I stop and start the engine it's fine again. 28 Apr 2002 12:28:08 -0600, agreenbunopsamAMnyx.net suggested: : Not yet.
