Bought this car from the dealer at 117K, was driving it home and once at highway speeds trans started wailing like a banshee, but only under load. The dealer diagnosed the problem as a pinion bearing, and they had to fix it. Car now has 258KMi and trans. is quiet and shifts with no problem. Same oil as the dealer put in 141KMi ago (wow, I should change it!). A little accel-decel slop but it's been like that for 100KMi. I drive moderately, smooth accel and decel. Oh and it's a 91 9000 base.
