Guest XR6240T Guests Posted 03/03/03 08:08 AM Posted 03/03/03 08:08 AM I heard a rumor that the transmissions in the Turbo were not up to the torque being put into them and the auto is not being shipped at the moment. Is there anyone out there with an auto turbo and would like to let us know how it goes and have there been any problems.

Is there anyone out there with an auto turbo and would like to let us know how it goes and have there been any problems.We hear lots of rumours around here - it seems mostly they come from people who have just come on the forum ... hmmmm.My son's auto XR6T ute arrived off the truck today so I guess that means shipping of autos has not been stopped.

Some failures have been reported during XR8 testing . hence the long delay for XR8 auto's ..
