I reckon its the biggest piece of crap box ever and I can't believe you are putting another one in! The shift is sloppy and I think the last time I shifted from 2nd to 3rd in one I was able to send a text message, scratch my nuts and re-program the radio presets! Totally understand you need your car and T56s aren't cheap, but fark me dead man, you are gonna be up sh*t creek again in no time unless you drive like a grandpa from now on!End rant...
