why are people's trannies dying? I have 76K on original box, no problems yet.

If it goes spring for a passat 6 speed box huh?

Default I wouldn't worry about it, most people with failures are only coming to this site because of it.
I would have your fluid changed to help.

Default Okay, but could I still use the boxes if I had to?
I may just do it as a mod and upgrade.

Default When you said passat box, did you mean tranny or
ECU?
