If that's the case then you should consider getting a built transmission. If you have 150k+ from normal driving then I'd say yeah, the used 21k transmission might not be a bad idea.
I dive my 7AT very "spirited" every time I get in the car.. I have never had any issues what so ever..

I must confess it was my mistake and not the manufacturers. The car was on jack stands and I was testing for exhaust rattle by revving the engine in drive. I had my hand on the brake pretty firm and I put in park before the revs dropped all the way down and the tranny (parking mechanism?) went *click click click* and the issue has been getting worse since then. This happened at 30k I think and am now at 89k
