RE: [DML] Replacement transmission?



Is there something wrong with the engine? Or just the transmission?

Depending on the cost of the car, why not just repair/replace the transmission?? It is a Renault built unit.

The engine/trans are NOT transverse. This is a similar setup to modern Porsche cars. The 97 DeLorean Time Machine has a Porsche automatic transmission in it, and others are working on Porsche conversions. IMHO, it is an expensive project.
