Hi Larry,

I have documented the problem at:

http://volksweb.relitech.com/091trans.htm

But I'm not sure when the failure is most likely to occur. It happened at
116K miles on my 1987 GL.

I understand that a flaw exists in a specific part of the vanagon tranny
between 3rd and 4th gears. Could anyone give me advice on about what
mileage this part malfunctions.

regards,
