From waht I've read the Granny slusher is prone to brake band wear which causes fluid contamination which causes valve blockage which causes trouble selecting the gears...............exactly the problems with the box in my car. i accept that this is only one unit I have experience of but I've read quite a few reports of similar failures. It would appear the slushbox fitted to the Cosworth Granny just wasn't up to the torque being thrown at it.

As I said before, an ASM box would be fantastic in a roadster with flappy paddle shift but a trad slushbox, no thanx!
