Just curious how long ur factory tranny lasted and how often u changed the fluid. If yours didn't break then don't vote.

 

only reason i said 100-120 is because i only got 115k on it right now, still runs good

 

'98 SE, over 110K, still on the original auto. tranny

 

I picked 180,001-200,000 for my dad's 95. It still works fine, but I wouldn't go as far as "still going strong". Maybe just "still going".

 

had 106k and lost 3rd gear ; auto, rebuild it, feel it goin bad again

 

Also not to sound like an *** but plz don't vote unless you have had problems or had to buy a new one...thanks for voting and responding ppl

 

My GLE had 155K HARD miles on it when it got totaled. I beat the hell out of that car and it never broke. The transmission was probably still good for a long time, until its guts were ripped out when I got hit head-on.

 

Ok, question for you guys?? Can I tell by looking at my current transmission to tell if it is the original or not?

 

Look for the vin number under your car on your transmission. There should be some sort of labeling on the transmission.

148,6xx still running strong...i change my transmission fluid about every other oil transmission just to be safe.

 

Ok, I just looked and mine is the original transmission. The car has over 200,000 miles on it. So, is this going to mean that I am going to need a new one soon, probably??
When I just went outside and turned the car on it was shaking and it has never done that before!

 

If your car is in Park, the transmission has nothing to do with the rough idle.

 

Transmission blew up (pieces fell onto the street) at 101K miles. This was before I owned the car and my mom had it and didn't abuse it.

 

No, that was in a different paragraph. I was just wondering since I have over 200k miles-should I expect that I will have to get a new transmission soon?

 

mine went at 70k, i used to do standstills on ice.... that was when iwas stupid

 

I'm currently at 128,000 and still shifts smoothly.

 

135k and running pretty well on stock engine hard driven from time to time

 

124,000 miles and it started to not hold lockup, then it would shift poorly then poof...new tranny time.

 

77,800 and going.. had some problems with a bad wire around 58K miles, which caused some complications... so I'm sure before too long I'll be looking for a 5speed.....

 

106xxx right now and its starting to slip. id love to do 5 speed swap when this goes out but i dont know how to do it, and i live in a small *** town and i know no one here can do it, so it looks like new Auto tranny if anyone in illinois has had to get new tranny and get 5 sp swap. please tell me where. i dont want auto anymore. thanks

 

The poll gets really inaccurate and becomes misleading if you vote for a milage less than 200,000 and you're "still goin' strong." Sometime this winter I'll vote for the "200,000 and still going strong" category, I'm at 193,000 right now. At some point I'd like to get a manual trans though...

 

132,489 And Still Shifting Strong..

 

Mine Went To 34000

 

174,500 & still going strong!

 

When I bought My car at 44kmiles 2 years ago, it was so dope, but then the tranny started slipping like 2 months before I came to china, that is when I got real serious about modding and stuff, well my cars slipping tranny caused me to run a best of 15.8 with a cai, y-pipe, custom b pipe, full 2.5" exhaust, high flow cat, and like all this dope spark plug calculation gapage i did with my freind and his special gizmo thingy, each cylnder has a specially gaped plug for like best performance(best fuel sparkage ratio, or w/e the hell its called) and like it sux ***, i was so pissed off, one of my other maxima buddys, (forgot his forum name) was like dood what the hell is wrong with your car, o by the way each time I went to the trax my car was completley stripped

 

SassyGirl -- what part of MN you in? Im from Roseville ... lived in Wayzata for a while too.

186,425.7 right now and still truckin' with the same tranny ... i have gone from Memphis to tha ATL about 8 times, from Memphis to Huntsville about 12 times and from Memphis to Chattanooga about 4 times all in the last 5 months.
And while in ATL, it was rode hard and put up wet. lol

 

i have had my car for 5 years...my brother had it for a year and a half before me so almost 7 years 167,000 miles original auto tranny.

Tony

 

183K changed the fluid once a yr since i had owned the car

 

'97, same mileage - seems to be in perfect condition.

 

I had 153,650 and one morning i went out and put it in reverse and it went foward and made weird sounds...I knew from that point it was screwed

 

My tranny had 174k on it before I ditched it went to the dark side (5spd)

 

my car has 108 on it, just had a rebuild (lost 2nd and 4th) Everything's fine now.

 

yeah 106 and alittle slipping but i am gonna add a cooler hope it will take care of the slip and o by the way Nick

"VOTE KERRY...stop Bushisms "

yeah and i voted for the war before i voted aginst it!
get real vote bush!

 

Obviously you haven't researched anything before you vote..Lets get an intelligent individual in office, and someone who can make a speech without stuttering every 5 secs and having no idea what he is saying...

Kerry voted Iraq as a threat and said we should go to war but not right away. Bush realized he ****ed up and couldn't catch Bin Ladin so he just choose to send troops to iraq and now, everyday, we are losing valuable lives cause Bush is a stubborn ***.

It will be like another s. korea/ n. korea situation where we won't be able to leave because there is always a threat.

The reason Kerry voted against it AFTERWARDS is cause BUSH HANDLED IT HORRIBLY WRONG.....Also Cali is a Demo state so bush has no chance of winning Cali...

 

151,00 and just changed the tranny fluid with no problems.

 

I have a feeling my tranny isnt gonna last much longer...im close to 117,000 on a 99......

 

...put up wet??

 

Hey guys,

Last time I checked, Maxima.org was an automotive forum, not a political forum. If you want to discuss politics, do it in the off-topic section. I'm really tired of hearing about the election, and I can't wait until it's over. Unless you're talking about automatic transmissions... ???

FYI, the recently elected govornator of California is a republican.

 

Thats great but if you know anything about politics you know that california's electoral votes have gone the democratic candidate the last 4 elections and it is an easy Kerry win this year.


ANYWAYS how many people have a 99 with an auto tranny that has already needed replacement and what miles.....mine seems to be smooth but every now and then it gets a lil jerky....

 

My dad drove my car into the ground everyday going to work and therefore ruined the tranny after 110K miles. It is the second vehicle he has ruined the tranny for so it was probably just his driving and not the car.

 

I have 247,000 miles on my 97se automatic. It is just now starting to slip a little bit.
