John,
The 722.6 transmissions got much better around 6/98. Much improved valve bodies & clutch drum support bearing. The 4 cylinder cars didn't get modified clutch drum support.
Properly serviced 722.6 transmissions(later versions or modified early ones) should make 250K miles w/o needing overhaul!!
