Just decided today after meeting a honest local builder with a good rep that I am going to have him build me a beefed up e40d trans. When you think about it, IF you have a problem, how easy is it to deal with someone a thousand miles away? Local guy has been in business for 30 years and carefully explained to me the desirable upgrades that make the e40d much more reliable and offers a three year with unlimited mileage warranty. van will get TC tugger, aux cooler, larger lines, steel planetary cages, billet TC, updated bearings, etc. - should be out the door installed for about 3.500 -
