Default Should We Have A Section For Automatics?

If we are to have separate sections, with at least three questions about automatics, then perhaps?

If you are going to have a separate section for automatics where does one post a question about the suspension or steering on an automatic?

Do you mean a separate section for automatic gearboxes?

I think you should have held off asking the question to see how my suggestion about a section for section on clutches for manuals panned out. If we ask/suggest for to many sections at once, it may be deemed a joke and ignored.

Can't see it being necessary Fred - the Jatco boxes are pretty much bullet proof apart from a few early reverse piston and solenoid failures.


Having said that there is nothing wrong with the Getrag manual boxes either - if only they had bothered to specify a decent slave cylinder.....

Considering the reaction I ought to come clean, I don't have an automatic, and I made the comment as a joke not realizing that it would not be seen as that, so, sorry.

There's a filament of logic there.

No worries - I thought you might have been having a laugh.
