I have owned 3 9000's all turbo, all auto and all done well over 150k on original transmission, most of it in the worst possible (London) driving conditions and had no probs at all. I think the golden rule with all auto transmissions is, DON'T hold it on the footbrake while the car is still in drive, they run very hot at the best of times and the temp in the torque converter goes sky high if you do. Remember, be smooth, "feel the change" like you would with a manual clutch. Coming up to red traffic lights?...knock it into N..."be cool, be smooth"...autos a problem??nahhh, it's the right foot thats the trouble!
